Inertial instruments - Where to now?

Abstract: Many types of inertial instruments have been invented in the past, are currently being invented, and will continue to be invented as the market for guidance, navigation, and control continues to expand. Some of the inertial instruments have found a niche in current applications, while some did not progress much beyond the laboratory/prototype stage. This will be true of future developments also. This paper begins by describing gyroscope and accelerometer technologies that dominate the current market (e.g., str… Show more

“…Inertial sensors have generally dominated guidance, navigation, and control applications since the dawn of 1 Author to whom any correspondence should be addressed. inertial sensing in the early 1920s [28][29][30][31], and new technologies have continuously led to advancements in developing inertial measurement systems [31][32][33][34]. Many efforts in the most recent years have been directed towards the realization of increasingly smaller rotation-rate sensors, with lower power requirements, capable of achieving performance commensurate with requirements for GPS-denied navigation of small platforms [35].…”

“…The application of inertiai sensors in measuring macro scale translational and angular displacements is wide and well documented, in particular in the aerospace navigation, defense [2][3][4][5][6][7], and public safety systems (e.g., "Wireless Enhanced 911"). The most accurate, conventional inertiai measurement units (IMU) employ gyroscope-stabilized, gimbaled or fioated platforms, usually aligned to the earth-fixed coordinate frame.…”

“…Η ακρίβειά τους είναι ανάλογη του κόστους και εξαρτάται από την συχνότητα του παραγόµενου ρεύµατος. Για τον λόγο αυτό χρησιµοποιούνται σε εφαρµογές που χαρακτηρίζονται από µεγάλης χρονικής διάρκειας γεγονότα, χαµηλές συχνότητες και χαµηλά επίπεδα θορύβου, όπως είναι ο έλεγχος οχηµάτων (Barbour, et al, 1992).…”
