Abstract
An inertial angular rate sensor (IARS) which includes a symmetrical mechanical resonator. The rate sensor includes one or more one pair of vibrating masses. The sensor further incudes a mechanical coupler which forces the masses to move in a symmetrical manner despite mechanical tolerances.
Claims11
An inertial angular rate sensor (IARS), including a symmetrical planar mechanical resonator, comprising at least one pair of vibrating masses and including mechanical coupling means that force the masses to move in a symmetrical manner in the plane of the resonator despite mechanical tolerances.
