Frequency measurement study of resonant vibratory gyroscopes

In this paper, frequency measurement methods of resonant vibratory gyroscopes are studied. First, the working principle and dynamic output characteristics of the resonant vibratory gyroscope are introduced, which provide a theoretical analysis base to analyze the dynamic frequency output characteristic of the resonant vibratory gyroscope. Moreover, some relevant frequency measurement methods are introduced, a frequency measurement method based on dynamic output characteristics has been proposed for the purpose of investigating the modulated output signal of resonant vibratory gyroscopes. Finally, in order to verify the feasibility of the proposed frequency measurement method, resonator oscillator and dynamic frequency measurement experiments of the resonant vibratory gyroscopes are built. It is concluded from the resonator oscillator result that the designed and observed resonant frequency of the resonator have a good match, which shows the design of resonator oscillator is feasible. It is concluded from the dynamic frequency measurement result that correlation coefficient of output fitted curve is 99.95%, and the output characteristic of the gyroscope is linear frequency output, which shows the effectiveness of the proposed frequency measurement method.
