Original abstract

Single mass MEMS gyroscopes suffer from significant sensitivity to linear acceleration also known as gsensitivity. In the case of multi-axis inertia measurement unit (IMU), we could benefit from direct acceleration measurement to suppress the influence of linear acceleration on gyroscope output. In this paper, we will derive a gyroscope dynamic model, pointing out the influence of linear acceleration, evaluate the performance of common fusion algorithm and suggest a method for compensation of linear acceleration sensitivity using artificial neural network (ANN). The neural network was designed as a nonlinear autoregressive neural network with external input (NARX). The proposed method is experimentally tested on the real system with emphasis on tilt estimation. A comparison of tilt measurement against tilt estimator based on ANN and conventional fusion algorithm is made. Results suggest that the accuracy was improved with the proposed ANN.
