Gyroscopes
Basic Definition: A gyroscope measures angular orientation
either directly, or through integrating a measured rotational
rate or acceleration.
Uses:
Navigation
Control Systems (i.e. anti-skid in cars)
Combine with accelerometer to form IMU
Desirable Qualities:
High Sensitivity-Minimum detectable rate.
Stability-Over time, or environmental change.
Broad Range-Accuracy at both low and high rates.
Types of Gyroscopes
Classic Spinning Disk
Based on gyroscopic effect of a of rotating object with angular
momentum.

Disadvantages
Speed of light is fast and thus requires many loops of fiber optic
fiber to create a detectable phase angle.

Fcoriolis = 2m(v )
Fully describes the position and orientation of the system at any time.
Each coordinate is independent from every other coordinate. In other
words each coordinate can be set independently without violating the
physical system.

Lagrangian
Three generalized coordinates x, y, .
The angular displacement is imposed on the device, while the x
direction is forced with sinusoidal oscillation amplitude of x0.
We are interested in the response occurring in the y coordinate, so
lets examine the equation of motion for qi=y.

Two Key Observations
Want to maximize the quality factor (MEMS resonators can have Qfactors > 20,000, which makes MEMS gyroscopes interesting)
Want to decrease the fundamental frequency of the device. Usually
set at ~20 kHz to avoid interaction with low frequency environmental
noise.
This last fact leads to some interesting dimensions for MEMS
structures.

How Steady?
Derivation assumed a small and steady rotation rate.
To provide a feel for how steady, find the time required to
reduce the homogenous solution to 10% its original value.
Assumptions:
Q = 10,000
= 20 kHz = 125,000 rad/sec
Xe t
Q=
1
2
Disadvantages
Lower accuracy due to difficulty inherent in measuring motion of
MEMS devices.
Devices often flimsy with length to thickness (slenderness) ratios
often approaching 1000.
Susceptible to shock.
As with most MEMS devices the reliability is low due to stiction.
Still in research phase
Research Project
Recall, for a Coriolis gyro., the accuracy is proportional to
Q-factor.

Conclusions
Examining the dynamics of two new classes of gyroscopes
provides the design intuition to:
Identify the design parameters which control the sensitivity.
Maximize the sensitivity to input rotation through parametric design.
Identify deficiencies in current understanding and develop new
research projects.
Point out the relative strengths and weakness of each, and what
applications are best suited for each.
