Description

Technical Field

[0002] The microelectromechanical gyroscope is a sensor that senses the rotation rate of a carrier based on the Coriolis effect. As an important application of MEMS technology in the field of inertial navigation, it has the advantages of small size, light weight, low cost, easy mass production and integration, and is widely used in military and civilian fields.

[0003] The traditional excitation strategy of the MEMS gyroscope based on the force balance control method usually adopts the "variable AC to constant DC" method, which adjusts the size of the external force of the gyroscope working mode by changing the amplitude of the AC signal to achieve the frequency-tracking and amplitude-stabilizing control of the driving mode and the force balance control of the detection mode. However, this method still has some shortcomings in high-dynamic detection and temperature-changing working environments. First, the variable AC signal under high-dynamic conditions requires rapid adjustment of the signal frequency and amplitude, which puts forward high requirements on the responsiveness of the force balance feedback path; secondly, the scale factor expression of the "variable AC to constant DC" method includes the amplitude of the driving mode, which is prone to drift of the scale factor in a wide temperature working environment.
