Microoptoelectromechanical ring angular velocity transducer based on the optical tunnel effect for control system of mobile objects

Abstract

Abstract In this article, the influence of the ring resonator parameters on the characteristics of the angular velocity transducer based on the optical tunneling effect (OTE) is investigated and model is introduced. The sensitivity of the module based on the optical tunneling effect is calculated to provide a quasi-linear range. The analysis of influence of linear acceleration on the ring angular velocity transducer based on the OTE is described. The compensation of the linear acceleration effect by using the differential processing method and switching, which provide the measurement of angular velocities with high accuracy for the entire measurement range, is described.
