Description

Miniaturized MEMS gyro north finder
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of inertial navigation, in particular to a miniaturized MEMS gyroscope north finder.
Background
According to different system principles, north finders are divided into two main categories. One type adopts the north-seeking technology which is represented by astronomical north-seeking and GPS north-seeking and is assisted by external information. The north seeker is generally high in accuracy, depends on the external environment, has strict requirements on environments such as weather and geographic positions, and is long in north seeking period. The other type adopts the north-seeking technology which does not depend on external information, such as magnetic north-seeking, inertial north-seeking and the like. Magnetic north seeking primarily utilizes magnetic sensors to measure the earth's magnetic field to determine the magnetic north pole. However, the earth magnetic field is weak and is easily interfered by ferromagnetic substances, electronic equipment and the like, so that the application is limited. The inertial north-seeking method mainly depends on a gyroscope and an accelerometer to measure the rotation angular velocity and the gravity vector of the earth to determine the true north direction. The method has the advantages of high precision, complete autonomy, strong concealment, no limitation of natural conditions and the like. The inertia north-seeking technology is an important component in the field of inertia technology.
The gyroscope is used as a core device of the north seeker and is a key factor influencing the development of the north seeker. The traditional high-precision inertial north seeker generally adopts high-precision gyroscopes such as a laser gyroscope, a fiber optic gyroscope, a hemispherical resonator gyroscope and the like, so that higher precision can be achieved in a shorter time, and the use requirement under a specific scene is met. However, the north seeker has the problems of large volume, heavy weight, large power consumption and high price. In some fields with strict requirements on volume, weight, power consumption and cost, the traditional gyro north seeker is no longer suitable.
The Micro Electro Mechanical System (MEMS) gyroscope has the characteristics of high reliability, impact resistance, small volume, low power consumption, low cost and the like, and is one of the mainstream development directions of the gyroscope. However, the precision of the MEMS gyroscope is relatively low at present, and the MEMS gyroscope is more applied to civil fields such as mobile phones, automobile electronics and the like. Aiming at the problems that the MEMS gyroscope has low precision and large noise and affects north-seeking precision, on one hand, the precision of an inertial device can be improved from the process. The method is a fundamental approach for improving the north-seeking precision, but has long period and higher technical difficulty, and is closely related to the level of technology, materials and the like. On the other hand, under the condition of a given inertia device precision, a rotation modulation technology can be used for improving the north seeking precision. The rotation modulation technology is used as an inertial device deviation self-compensation method, and is used for modulating the inertial device deviation and offsetting the influence of the device deviation on the system precision.
The motor volume that present north seeker adopted is generally great and reduction gear clearance makes the precision lower, and partial module separation, and does not adopt integrated structure design, leads to the system volume too big, and the quality is heavier, and the precision descends, is unfavorable for portable use.
