Abstract:
As a MEMS gyroscope is susceptible to environmental interference, its performance is degraded due to random noise. Accurate and rapid analysis of random noise of MEMS gyroscope is of great significance to improve the gyroscope's performance. A PID-DAVAR adaptive algorithm is designed by combining the PID principle with DAVAR. It can adaptively adjust the length of the truncation window according to the dynamic characteristics of the gyroscope's output signal. When the output signal fluctuates drastically, the length of the truncation window becomes smaller, and the mutation characteristics of the intercepted signal are analyzed detailed and thoroughly. When the output signal fluctuates steadily, the length of the truncation window becomes larger, and the intercepted signals are analyzed swiftly and roughly. The variable length of the truncation window ensures the confidence of the variance and shortens the data processing time without losing the signal characteristics. Experimental and simulation results show that the PID-DAVAR adaptive algorithm can shorten the data processing time by 50%. The tracking error of the noise coefficients of angular random walk, bias instability, and rate random walk is about 10% on average, and the minimum error is about 4%. It can accurately and promptly present the dynamic characteristics of the MEMS gyroscope's random noise. The PID-DAVAR adaptive algorithm not only satisfies the requirement of variance confidence but also has a good signal-tracking ability.
