Verfahren zum aktiven Auswuchten eines Vibrationskreiselsensorelements

摘要

A vibrating structure gyroscope sensing element structure of ring-like or substantially cylindrical form made of ferromagnetic material is actively balanced by applying a variable strength magnetic field across a predetermined section of the circumference of the sensing element structure differentially to shift the resonant frequency of one or the other of the primary and secondary vibration modes (1,2) thereof by an amount sufficient to bring the two mode resonant frequencies into balance.
