ABSTRACT
Damping asymmetry is one of the most important factors that determines the performance of Coriolis Vibratory Gyroscope. In this paper, a novel damping tuning method for the resonator with parallel plate capacitors is presented. This damping tuning method is based on resistance heat dissipation and the tuning effect is characterized by the control force in Whole-Angle mode. As the damping tuning and stiffness tuning in the resonator with parallel plate capacitors are coupled with each other, a corresponding tuning system is designed. To verify the tuning effects, experiments are conducted on a hemispherical resonator gyroscope with Whole-Angle mode. The damping tuning theories is demonstrated by the testing results and 87% of the damping asymmetry is reduced by this tuning method with a cost of 3% decaying time. Furthermore, the angle-dependent drift in rate measurement after tuning is only 15.6% of the one without tuning and the scale factor nonlinearity decreases from 5.49 ppm to 2.66 ppm. The method can be further applied on the damping tuning in other resonators with symmetrical structure.
