The application discloses a PT-symmetry thermal piezoresistive MEMS
wind speed and direction sensor, which comprises four groups of PT-symmetry MEMS resonators with thermal piezoresistive feedback and arranged in quadrature; the PT-symmetry MEMS
resonator comprises two
cantilever beam resonators which are completely identical in structure, a
coupling spring beam connected to the two resonators, and a
constant current source connected to one of the resonators; each
cantilever beam resonator comprises two anchor areas, a
wide beam connected to the anchor areas, a
narrow beam with
piezoresistive effect, a warped thin plate structure, and external electrodes located on both sides of the thin plate structure. The
wind speed and direction signals are converted into stiffness changes of the
resonator array through mechanical action by the warped thin plate structure, the stiffness changes make the PT-symmetry MEMS
system deviate from the EP point, thereby causing frequency splitting of the
system. Since the frequency splitting amount of the PT-symmetry
system is proportional to the square root of the disturbance amount, the
wind speed and direction sensor can detect a tiny wind speed
signal, has very high sensitivity, and has the advantages of simple process, high integration and the like.
