A Random Error Suppression Method Based on IGWPSO-ELM for Micromachined Silicon Resonant Accelerometers

Abstract

There are various errors in practical applications of micromachined silicon resonant accelerometers (MSRA), among which the composition of random errors is complex and uncertain. In order to improve the output accuracy of MSRA, this paper proposes an MSRA random error suppression method based on an improved grey wolf and particle swarm optimized extreme learning machine (IGWPSO-ELM). A modified wavelet threshold function is firstly used to separate the white noise from the useful signal. The output frequency at the previous sampling point and the sequence value are then added to the current output frequency to form a three-dimensional input. Additional improvements are made on the particle swarm optimized extreme learning machine (PSO-ELM): the grey wolf optimization (GWO) is fused into the algorithm and the three factors (inertia, acceleration and convergence) are non-linearized to improve the convergence efficiency and accuracy of the algorithm. The model trained offline using IGWPSO-ELM is applied to predicting compensation experiments, and the results show that the method is able to reduce velocity random walk from the original 4.3618 μg/√Hz to 2.1807 μg/√Hz, bias instability from the original 2.0248 μg to 1.3815 μg, and acceleration random walk from the original 0.53429 μg·√Hz to 0.43804 μg·√Hz, effectively suppressing the random error in the MSRA output.
