Nonlinearity Harmonic Error Compensation Method Based on Intelligent Identification for Rate Integrating Resonator Gyroscope

This paper presents an improved intelligent optimizing algorithm based on parameter identification and drift compensation for the rate-integrating resonator gyroscope (RIRG). Besides damping and frequency imperfections, the RIRG measurement accuracy still suffers from limitations due to nonlinear error. Therefore, the dynamic nonlinear error model for RIRG has been established to reveal the relationship between the pattern angle and harmonic drifts. Based on this, a dynamic analysis of the gyroscope operating state is carried out using nonlinear motion equations. The optimal harmonic error parameters are then identified by a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm for the drift error compensation. To further improve the measurement accuracy, chaotic technology is integrated with PSO, leading to more precise identification. Subsequently, the harmonic parameters of the bias drifts are efficiently compensated. Experimental results demonstrate that the bias drift is reduced by over 90% after harmonic error compensation, demonstrating the validity of the proposed method in enhancing the measurement accuracy of RIRGs.
