System and method for gyro rate computation for a Coriolis Vibrating Gyroscope

Abstract:

In accordance with one or more aspects of the present disclosure, a method including supplying a first voltage input to a Coriolis vibratory gyroscope at a first bias voltage; supplying a second voltage input to the Coriolis vibratory gyroscope at a second bias voltage, the second bias voltage being different than the first bias voltage; detecting a difference in responses of the Coriolis vibratory gyroscope due to the first bias voltage and the second bias voltage; and determining a gyro rate of the Coriolis vibratory gyroscope as a function of the difference in responses and a correction term.
