Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of inertial instrument control, and relates to a multi-gyro automatic calibration system and method for hemispherical resonant gyroscopes, which is applied to the factory calibration process of the systematic error of hemispherical resonant gyroscopes, and is an automatic implementation method for calibrating and compensating the error terms of hemispherical resonant gyroscopes. Background Art

[0002] The quartz hemispherical resonant gyroscope is a new type of gyroscope, which has the advantages of short startup time, low output noise, long service life, and good stability.

[0003] The hemispherical resonant gyroscope consists of a coated quartz hemispherical resonator and an electrode base. The resonator film layer and the electrode base together form the detection and excitation capacitors. Restricted by the machining accuracy and assembly accuracy of the electrode base, there are inevitable electrode azimuth errors and assembly gap errors in the hemispherical resonant gyroscope. This error will affect the vibration detection electrical signal and excitation electrical signal in the resonant gyroscope control system through the excitation electrode and the detection electrode, which does not match the actual vibration of the resonator and the actual excitation voltage, that is, there is a certain difference, and this difference changes with the vibration shape azimuth angle of the resonator.

[0004] This error belongs to the systematic error of the hemispherical resonant gyroscope system, and it is generally considered that it is mainly caused by the process defects in the machining and assembly process and will not change with other external factors. Therefore, in order to eliminate the influence of this error on the vibration state of the resonator and the working state of the resonant gyroscope, the error term can be compensated by means of factory calibration to eliminate its influence. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention proposes a multi-gyro automatic calibration system and method for hemispherical resonant gyroscopes.

[0006] One of the above objects of the present invention is achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0007] A multi-gyro automatic calibration system for hemispherical resonant gyroscopes includes a rate turntable and its communication module, a multi-gyro control system, and a PC host computer module;

[0008] The rate turntable communication module is based on the RS-232 serial communication protocol, and is used to receive instructions sent by an external serial port and process them. According to the internal protocol of the communication module, the received instructions are verified for correctness. If the verification is correct or incorrect, the corresponding verification information is returned through the external serial port. If the verification is correct, the rate turntable is simultaneously controlled to execute the corresponding instructions;

[0009] A multi-gyro control system is used to control and utilize at most three-axis hemispherical resonant gyro elements, and realizes the acquisition of vibration signals of the gyro elements and the output of excitation signals through a pre-amplifier circuit. The multi-gyro control system includes a communication module, which is based on the RS-422 serial communication protocol, sends the output information of the multi-gyro control system, receives control instructions from a single gyro or multiple gyros from the outside, and enables the hemispherical resonant gyro elements to perform actions or send required information according to the control instructions.

[0010] A PC host computer module is used to realize the multi-gyro automatic calibration logic control and the instruction sending and receiving of a dual serial port, and is respectively connected to the rate turntable and its communication module and the multi-gyro control system and its communication module. The PC host computer module realizes the synchronous actions of the rate turntable and the multi-gyro control system by sending turntable control instructions and gyro control instructions through the serial port according to a certain program through the built-in self-calibration method logic, and real-time collects the output data of the gyro control system required by the self-calibration method. According to the mathematical operation process described by the method, the operation result is the system error value of the hemispherical resonant gyro, and the verification information returned by the communication modules of the multi-gyro control system and the rate turntable is verified in real time to monitor the correctness of the self-calibration method process.

[0011] The second above-mentioned object of the present invention is achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0012] A calibration method based on the above-mentioned multi-gyro automatic calibration system for hemispherical resonant gyros includes the following steps:

[0013] Step 1: Connect the rate turntable-PC and the multi-gyro control system-PC communication modules through cables.

[0014] Step 2: Start the rate turntable, turn on its communication module, and make it work in the external instruction control mode;

[0015] Step 3: Start the multi-gyro control system to make at most three-axis hemispherical resonant gyro elements in a stable working state;

[0016] Step 4: Turn on the PC host computer module and set the correct communication serial port number;

[0017] Step 5: On the PC host computer module setting interface, set the required system error automatic calibration items, calibration repetition times, and start time. Among them, the system error automatic calibration items include the electrode gain error k, the electrode azimuth error θ, and the electrode phase error nonlinear error h;

[0018] Step 6: Detect the maximum range of at most three-axis hemispherical resonant gyro elements and complete the initial alignment of calibration error items in the PC host computer and the multi-gyro control system;

[0019] Step 7. For each individually set error calibration item, according to the preset instructions in the PC host computer, send instructions to the multi-gyroscope control system through the serial port to control at most three-axis hemispherical resonator gyroscope elements to operate in the required working mode. At the same time, send instructions to the rate turntable to control the rate turntable to rotate at an angular rate not exceeding 3 / 4 of the maximum range of the gyroscope element.

[0020] Step 8. Wait for the dual calibration end instruction of the multi-gyroscope control system and the PC host computer. According to the output data of the multi-gyroscope control system when the turntable rotates, the PC host computer intercepts and processes the data, obtains the value of the corresponding error item through mathematical operations, and sends this value to the multi-gyroscope control system.

[0021] Step 9. Repeat Steps 7 and 8 until all the set error calibration items are automatically calibrated according to the set number of repetitions.

[0022] Step 10. Store the system error parameter results of at most three-axis hemispherical resonator gyroscope elements obtained by automatic calibration, the calibration process log, and the output of the multi-gyroscope control system received during the calibration process.

[0023] Moreover, in Step 5, the electrode azimuth error is: in the electrode base of the hemispherical resonator gyroscope element, the azimuth deviation between the X-azimuth electrode, the Y-azimuth electrode and the 0° and 45° directions of the theoretical coordinate system. Among them: the X-azimuth electrode and the Y-azimuth electrode are a pair of electrodes with a designed azimuth angle of 45° in the electrode base, and the theoretical coordinate system is a coordinate system defined artificially, parallel to the plane of the electrode base, with the origin at the design center point of the electrode base; assuming that only the electrode azimuth error exists, the detection signal expressions of the X and Y electrodes are:

[0024]

[0025] Among them: D x 、D y represent the vibration of the resonator in the theoretical coordinate axis directions of the X and Y electrodes, represents the actual detection signals of the X and Y electrodes, and θ x 、θ y represent the angles between the actual directions of the X and Y electrodes and the theoretical coordinate axis directions;

[0026] Similarly, the actual excitation signal of the control system for the resonator can be expressed as:

[0027]

[0028] Among them: F is the excitation signal generated by the electrode, is the actual excitation signal acting on the resonator

[0029] Moreover, in step 5, a relative value is obtained from the difference between the equivalent capacitance values of the X-orientation electrode and the Y-orientation electrode of the electrode base portion of the hemispherical resonant gyro element and the equivalent capacitance value of the X-orientation electrode. This relative value includes two parts: the electrode gain error and the non-linear error. Among them, the electrode gain error part is a constant value, and the non-linear error will change synchronously with the vibration state of the resonator. Assuming that only the electrode gain error and the non-linear error exist, the detection signal expressions of the X and Y electrodes are:

[0030]

[0031] Where: k x 、k y represent the gains of the X and Y electrodes respectively, Δk x 、Δk y represent the gain differences (gain errors) of the X and Y electrodes caused by the inconsistent gaps due to reasons such as assembly, represents the gain difference (non-linear error) of the electrode caused by the circumferential inconsistency of the resonator amplitude, a represents the vibration amplitude of the resonator, θ represents the azimuth angle of the standing wave of the resonator vibration mode, d 0 represents the equivalent distance of the capacitance formed between the resonator and the electrode;

[0032] Similarly, the actual excitation signal of the resonator by the control system can be expressed as:

[0033]

[0034] Where: F is the excitation signal generated by the excitation electrode, is the actual excitation signal acting on the resonator

[0035] Moreover, in step 5, the electrode phase error, in essence, is the phase difference between the detection signal of the electrode and the sine signal generated inside the multi-gyro control system in the hemispherical resonant gyro element.

[0036] Assuming that only the electrode phase error exists, the detection signal expressions of the X and Y electrodes are:

[0037]

[0038] Where represent the signal phase delays in the X and Y electrodes respectively.

[0039] The expressions of the actual excitation signals of the X and Y electrodes acting on the resonator are:

[0040]

[0041] Moreover, in step 7, in the multi-gyro control system, the control force acting on the hemispherical resonant gyro element includes C a 、Cq , C p , C r , in a multi-gyroscope control system, the control forces acting on the hemispherical resonator gyroscope element include C a , C q , C p , C r , these four control forces act on the main amplitude, secondary amplitude, vibration azimuth angle, and vibration phase of the resonator vibration respectively. Through C a , C p , C q , the coupling relationship of the three with respect to the calibration error term is used to obtain the specific value of the calibration error through mathematical operations.

[0042] Moreover, in step 8, the output data required by the multi-gyroscope control system includes the standing wave azimuth angle, azimuth angle rate of the gyroscope element, and C a , C p , C q , and three control force terms.

[0043] Moreover, in steps 7 and 8, for the output data required by each error term calibration and mathematical operation of the multi-gyroscope control system, the standing wave azimuth angle of the gyroscope element needs to be located at a certain fixed position, and at the same time, the rate turntable is controlled to rotate in the positive and negative directions respectively at the same angular rate absolute value.

[0044] The advantages and positive effects of the present invention are:

[0045] 1. The multi-gyroscope automatic calibration system and method for a hemispherical resonator gyroscope of the present invention realizes remote operation and information exchange of the gyroscope control system and the turntable through a rate turntable, a PC host computer, and a multi-gyroscope control system based on the RS-232 and RS-422 communication protocols, realizes the handshake and linkage logic control of the rate turntable - PC host computer - multi-gyroscope control system, and has the versatility of angular rate sensitive elements with similar principles.

[0057] The PC host computer module is used to implement the automatic calibration logic control of multiple gyroscopes and the instruction sending and receiving of dual serial ports, and is respectively connected to the rate turntable and its communication module, and the multiple gyroscope control system and its communication module; the PC host computer module passes the built-in self-calibration method logic, and sends the turntable control instruction and the gyroscope control instruction through the serial port according to a certain program, realizes the synchronous action of the rate turntable and the multiple gyroscope control system, and real-time collects the output data of the gyroscope control system required by the self-calibration method. According to the mathematical operation process described by the method, the operation result is the system error value of the hemispherical resonant gyroscope, and the verification information returned by the multiple gyroscope control system and the rate turntable communication module is verified in real time to monitor the correctness of the self-calibration method process.

[0058] A calibration method for the multiple gyroscope automatic calibration system based on the above hemispherical resonant gyroscope includes the following steps:

[0059] Step 1: Connect the rate turntable-PC and the multiple gyroscope control system-PC communication modules through cables.

[0060] Step 2: Start the rate turntable, turn on its communication module, and make it work in the external instruction control mode;

[0062] Step 4: Turn on the PC host computer module and set the correct communication serial port number;

[0063] Step 5: On the PC host computer module setting interface, set the required system error automatic calibration items, calibration repetition times, and start time. Among them, the system error automatic calibration items include electrode gain error k, electrode azimuth error θ, and electrode phase error Nonlinear error h;

[0064] Step 6: Detect the maximum range of at most three-axis hemispherical resonant gyroscope elements, and complete the initial alignment of calibration error items in the PC host computer and the multiple gyroscope control system;

[0065] Step 7: For each individual error calibration item set, according to the preset instructions in the PC host computer, send instructions to the multiple gyroscope control system through the serial port to control at most three-axis hemispherical resonant gyroscope elements to work in the required working mode, and at the same time send instructions to the rate turntable to control the rate turntable to rotate at an angular rate not exceeding 3 / 4 of the maximum range of the gyroscope element;

[0066] Step 8: Wait for the dual calibration end instructions of the multiple gyroscope control system and the PC host computer. According to the output data of the multiple gyroscope control system when the turntable rotates, the PC host computer intercepts and processes the data, obtains the value of the corresponding error item through mathematical operations, and sends the value to the multiple gyroscope control system;

[0067] Step 9. Repeat Steps 7 and 8 until all the set error calibration items are automatically calibrated according to the set number of repetitions.

[0068] Step 10. Store the results of the system error parameters of at most three-axis hemispherical resonator gyroscope elements obtained by automatic calibration, the calibration process log, and the output of the multi-gyro control system received during the calibration process.

[0069] In the above Step 5, the electrode azimuth error is: in the electrode base of the hemispherical resonator gyroscope element, the azimuth deviation between the X-azimuth electrode and the Y-azimuth electrode and the 0° and 45° directions of the theoretical coordinate system. Among them: the X-azimuth electrode and the Y-azimuth electrode are a pair of electrodes with a designed azimuth angle of 45° in the electrode base, and the theoretical coordinate system is a coordinate system defined artificially, parallel to the plane of the electrode base, with the origin at the designed center point of the electrode base. Assuming that there is only electrode azimuth error, the detection signal expressions of the X and Y electrodes are:

[0070]

[0071] Among them: D x 、D y represent the vibration of the resonator in the theoretical coordinate axis directions of the X and Y electrodes, represents the actual detection signals of the X and Y electrodes, and θ x 、θ y represent the angles between the actual directions of the X and Y electrodes and the 0° and 45° directions of the theoretical coordinate system;

[0072] Similarly, the actual excitation signal of the control system for the resonator can be expressed as:

[0073]

[0074] Among them: F is the excitation signal generated by the electrode, is the actual excitation signal acting on the resonator

[0075] In the above Step 5, a relative value is obtained by the ratio of the difference between the equivalent capacitance values of the X-azimuth electrode and the Y-azimuth electrode in the electrode base part of the hemispherical resonator gyroscope element to the equivalent capacitance value of the X-azimuth electrode. This relative value includes two parts: electrode gain error and non-linear error. Among them, the electrode gain error part is a constant value, and the non-linear error will change synchronously with the vibration state of the resonator. Assuming that there are only electrode gain error and non-linear error, the detection signal expressions of the X and Y electrodes are:

[0076]

[0077] Among them: k x 、k yrespectively represent the X and Y electrode gains, Δk x and Δk y represent the X and Y electrode gain differences (gain errors) caused by inconsistent gaps due to reasons such as assembly, represent the electrode gain differences (nonlinear errors) caused by the circumferential inconsistency characteristics of the resonator amplitude, a represents the vibration amplitude of the resonator, θ represents the azimuth angle of the standing wave of the resonator vibration mode, d 0 represents the equivalent spacing of the capacitance formed between the resonator and the electrode;

[0078] Similarly, the actual excitation signal of the control system for the resonator can be expressed as:

[0079]

[0080] where: F is the excitation signal generated by the excitation electrode, is the actual excitation signal acting on the resonator

[0081] In the above step 5, the electrode phase error is actually the phase difference between the detection signal of the electrode in the hemispherical resonator gyro element and the sine signal generated inside the multi-gyro control system.

[0082] Assuming that only the electrode phase error exists, the expressions for the detection signals of the X and Y electrodes are:

[0083]

[0084] where respectively represent the signal phase delays in the X and Y electrodes.

[0085] The expressions for the actual excitation signals of the X and Y electrodes acting on the resonator are:

[0086]

[0087] In the above step 7, in the multi-gyro control system, the control forces acting on the hemispherical resonator gyro element include C a and C q and C p and C r , these four control forces act on the main amplitude, secondary amplitude, vibration azimuth angle, and vibration phase of the resonator vibration respectively. Through the coupling relationship of C a and C p and C q regarding the calibration error terms, the specific value of the calibration error is obtained through mathematical operations.

[0088] In the above step 8, the required output data of the multi-gyro control system, the output data includes the standing wave azimuth angle of the gyro element, the azimuth angle rate, and C a and C p, C q Three control force terms.

[0089] In the above steps 7 and 8, for the output data of the multi-gyro control system required for each error term calibration and mathematical operation, the standing wave azimuth angle of the gyro element needs to be located at a certain fixed position, and at the same time, the control rate turntable is rotated in the positive and negative directions respectively at the same angular rate absolute value.

[0090] Taking the azimuth error θ in the calibration error term as an example: y The output of the excitation quantity required for mathematical operations includes C a and C p . The actual excitation quantity acting on the resonator is:

[0091]

[0092] Taking the X-electrode axis as the 0° reference coordinate axis, the standing wave azimuth angle is controlled at 45° through the gyro control system, that is, when θ x = 0, θ = 45°, due to the electrode azimuth error, and The actual excitation only generates coupling on the Y electrode, that is, there is an excitation C p sin(θ y ) acting on the resonator through the Y electrode together with C a , resulting in a decrease in C a .

[0093] To obtain the accurate value of θ y , through the input of the rate turntable, make C p as large as possible within the excitation range. The change in C p caused by the turntable input is denoted as ΔC p , and the corresponding change in C a is denoted as ΔC a . The PC host computer stores and calculates the data to obtain the calibration error term (at this time, θ x is regarded as 0):

[0094]

[0095] When the standing wave azimuth angle is controlled at 0°, 11.25°, 22.5°, and 45°, the calibration error terms can be calculated respectively: and θ x , k x and k y , and and θ y .

[0100] Set the calibration error items, calibration cycle times, calibration start time, and calibration gyro element numbers to be calibrated in the PC host computer, and start the calibration program

[0101] After the handshake between the PC host computer and the turntable is completed, detect the maximum range of at most three-axis hemispherical resonant gyro elements, and complete the initial alignment of the calibration error item quantity between the PC host computer and the multi-gyro control system;

[0102] After the calibration logic control of the PC host computer is completed, for each individual error calibration item set, according to the preset instructions in the PC host computer, send instructions to the multi-gyro control system through the serial port to control at most three-axis hemispherical resonant gyro elements to work in the required working mode, and at the same time send instructions to the rate turntable to control the rate turntable to rotate at an angular rate not exceeding 3 / 4 of the maximum range of the gyro element;

[0103] Wait for the double calibration end instruction of the multi-gyro control system and the PC host computer. According to the output data of the multi-gyro control system when the turntable rotates, the PC host computer intercepts and processes the data, obtains the numerical value of the corresponding error item through mathematical operations, and sends the numerical value to the multi-gyro control system;
