This study proposes a fusion algorithm based on forward linear prediction (FLP) and particle swarm optimization–back propagation (PSO-BP) to compensate for the temperature drift. Firstly, the accelerometer signal is broken down into several intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) using variational modal decomposition (VMD); then, according to the FE algorithm, the IMF signal is separated into mixed components, temperature drift, and pure noise. After that, the mixed noise is denoised by FLP, and PSO-BP is employed to create a model for temperature adjustment. Finally, the processed mixed noise and the processed IMFs are rebuilt to obtain the enhanced output signal. To confirm that the suggested strategy works, temperature experiments are conducted. After the output signal is processed by the VMD-FE-FLP-PSO-BP algorithm, the acceleration random walk has been improved by 23%, the zero deviation has been enhanced by 24%, and the temperature coefficient has been enhanced by 92%, compared with the original signal.

Herein, we investigate the temperature compensation for a dual-mass MEMS gyroscope. After introducing and simulating the dual-mass MEMS gyroscope's working modes, we propose a hybrid algorithm for temperature compensation relying on improved complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise (ICEEMDAN), sample entropy, time–frequency peak filtering, non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-II (NSGA II) and extreme learning machine. Firstly, we use ICEEMDAN to decompose the gyroscope's output signal, and then we use sample entropy to classify the decomposed signals. For noise segments and mixed segments with different levels of noise, we use time–frequency peak filtering with different window lengths to achieve a trade-off between noise removal and signal retention. For the feature segment with temperature drift, we build a compensation model using extreme learning machine. To improve the compensation accuracy, NSGA II is used to optimize extreme learning machine, with the prediction error and the 2-norm of the output-layer connection weight as the optimization objectives. Enormous simulation experiments prove the excellent performance of our proposed scheme, which can achieve trade-offs in signal decomposition, classification, denoising and compensation. The improvement in the compensated gyroscope's output signal is analyzed based on Allen variance; its angle random walk is decreased from 0.531076°/h/√Hz to 6.65894 × 10−3°/h/√Hz and its bias stability is decreased from 32.7364°/h to 0.259247°/h.

MEMS accelerometers are significantly impacted by temperature and noise, leading to a considerable compromise in their accuracy. In response to this challenge, we propose a parallel denoising and temperature compensation fusion algorithm for MEMS accelerometers based on RLMD-SE-TFPF and GRU-attention. Firstly, we utilize robust local mean decomposition (RLMD) to decompose the output signal of the accelerometer into a series of product function (PF) signals and a residual signal. Secondly, we employ sample entropy (SE) to classify the decomposed signals, categorizing them into noise segments, mixed segments, and temperature drift segments. Next, we utilize the time-frequency peak filtering (TFPF) algorithm with varying window lengths to separately denoise the noise and mixed signal segments, enabling subsequent signal reconstruction and training. Considering the strong inertia of the temperature signal, we innovatively introduce the accelerometer's output time series as the model input when training the temperature compensation model. We incorporate gated recurrent unit (GRU) and attention modules, proposing a novel GRU-MLP-attention model (GMAN) architecture. Simulation experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed fusion algorithm. After processing the accelerometer output signal through the RLMD-SE-TFPF denoising algorithm and the GMAN temperature drift compensation model, the acceleration random walk is reduced by 96.11 % , with values of 0.23032 g/h / Hz for the original accelerometer output signal and 0.00895695 g/h / Hz for the processed signal.

Purpose: To reduce the influence of temperature on MEMS gyroscope, this paper aims to propose a temperature drift compensation method based on variational modal decomposition (VMD), time-frequency peak filter (TFPF), mind evolutionary algorithm (MEA) and BP neural network. Design/methodology/approach: First, VMD decomposes gyro's temperature drift sequence to obtain multiple intrinsic mode functions (IMF) with different center frequencies and then Sample entropy calculates, according to the complexity of the signals, they are divided into three categories, namely, noise signals, mixed signals and temperature drift signals. Then, TFPF denoises the mixed-signal, the noise signal is directly removed and the denoised sub-sequence is reconstructed, which is used as training data to train the MEA optimized BP to obtain a temperature drift compensation model. Finally, the gyro's temperature characteristic sequence is processed by the trained model. Findings: The experimental result proved the superiority of this method, the bias stability value of the compensation signal is 1.279 × 10–3°/h and the angular velocity random walk value is 2.132 × 10–5°/h/vHz, which is improved compared to the 3.361°/h and 1.673 × 10–2°/h/vHz of the original output signal of the gyro. Originality/value: This study proposes a multi-dimensional processing method, which treats different noises separately, effectively protects the low-frequency characteristics and provides a high-precision training set for drift modeling. TFPF can be optimized by SEVMD parallel processing in reducing noise and retaining static characteristics, MEA algorithm can search for better threshold and connection weight of BP network and improve the model's compensation effect.

This article suggested two methods to compensate for the temperature drift of the micro-electro-mechanical system gyroscopes, which are support vector machine method and C-means support vector machine. The output of X axis which was ranged from −40°C to 60°C based on the micro-electro-mechanical system gyroscope is reduced and analyzed in this article. The results showed the correctness of the two methods. The final results indicate that when the temperature is ranged from −40°C to 60°C, the factor of B is reduced from 0.424 (° h) to 0.02194 (° h) , and when the temperature is ranged from 60°C to −40°C, the factor of B is reduced from 0.1056 (° h) to 0.0329 (° h) , and the temperature drift trend and noise characteristics are improved clearly.

In recent years, High-G MEMS accelerometers have been widely used in aviation, medicine, and other fields. So it is extremely important to improve the accuracy and performance of High-G MEMS accelerometers. For this purpose, we propose a fusion algorithm that combines EMD, wavelet thresholding, and temperature compensation to process measurement data from a High-G MEMS accelerometer. In the fusion algorithm, the original accelerometer signal is first decomposed by EMD to obtain the intrinsic mode function (IMF). Then, sample entropy (SE) is used to divide the IMF components into three segments. The noise segment is directly omitted, wavelet thresholding is performed on the mixing segment, and a GA-BP performs temperature compensation on the drift segment. Finally, signal reconstruction is implemented. Later, a comparative analysis is carried out on the results from four models: EMD, wavelet thresholding, EMD + wavelet thresholding, and EMD + wavelet thresholding + temperature compensation. The experimental data show that the acceleration random walk change from 1712.66 g/h/Hz0.5 to 79.15 g/h/Hz0.5 and the zero-deviation stability change from 49275 g/h to 774.7 g/h. This indicates that the fusion algorithm (EMD + wavelet thresholding + temperature compensation) not only effectively suppresses the noise of high-frequency components but also compensates for temperature drift in the accelerometer.

This paper presents a bandwidth expansion method for dual-mass microelectromechanical system (MEMS) gyroscopes based on the pole–zero temperature compensation method. When the sense loop operates under open conditions, the mechanical sensitivity of the gyroscope structure conflicts with the bandwidth and is governed by the frequency difference between the drive and the sense modes (min {Δω1, Δω2}), which is proven to change with temperature during the experiment. The pole–zero temperature compensation proportional controller (PZTCPC) is proposed to expand the bandwidth under different temperatures based on the pole–zero compensation method. The force rebalancing combs stimulation method (FRCSM) is used to achieve accurate gyroscope bandwidth characteristics. The mechanical bandwidth of the gyroscope is proven to be approximately 13 Hz when the sense-mode loop is open, and the simulation results show that the PZTCPC method expands the bandwidth to greater than 91.7 Hz after the sense-mode loop is closed. The FRCSM experiments indicate that gyroscope bandwidth is expanded to 95 Hz at –40 °C, 94 Hz at 20 °C and 92 Hz at 60 °C, while the bandwidths at –40, 20, and 60 °C are all 93 Hz with the turntable method. The experimental curves match the simulation curves well and verify the simulation results. The new limiting condition of the closed-loop bandwidth is the trough generated by conjugate zeros, formed by superposition of in-phase and anti-phase sense modes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes different noise components in MEMS gyroscope silicon structure, including mechanical–thermal noise (MTN), electronic-thermal noise (ETN), flicker noise (FN) and Coriolis signal in-phase noise (IPN). The structure equivalent electronic model is established, and the improved differential interface is proposed based on weak signal detection technology, after that, the noise components in silicon structure are introduced and analyzed in sense open loop. The quadrature error (QE) signal automatically cancellation loop is proposed, and the results of the experiment indicate that the equivalent angular rates of QE and IPN are 46°/s and 4.55°/s respectively. The interfaces contrast experiments show that the DC noise and the useful signal amplitudes of differential and single-side detection interfaces are −49.8 dBmV, −16.8 dBmV and −39.8 dBmV (−42.1 dBmV), −22.1 dBmV (−22.2 dBmV), which confirms the differential interface has better SNR. The carrier experiments also illustrate that higher carrier frequency (from 500 kHz to 10 MHz) can restrain DC noise (from −19.8 dBmV to −54.2 dBmV) better, which demonstrate the FN is the dominant noise component of the silicon structure under normal temperature. The temperature experiments show the DC noise enhances from −48.5 dBmV to −14.6 dBmV over the range 20 °C to 60°C while the useful signal amplitude remains around -16.6dBmV, and this phenomenon indicates the MTN and ETN become the dominant structure noise components gradually with temperature rising.

In this paper, a novel temperature compensation method for a dual-mass MEMS gyroscope is proposed based on drive mode vibration characteristic compensation using a temperature variable resistor. Firstly, the drive and sense modes of the gyroscope re analyzed and investigated, and it is found that the scale factor is proportional to the drive mode amplitude controlling reference voltage. Then, the scale factor temperature compensation method is proposed, and a temperature variable resistor is utilized to compensate the drive amplitude working point and make it change with temperature. In addition, the temperature compensation circuit is designed and simulated. After that, the temperature bias drift is compensated in a modular output. The experimental results show that scale factor and bias variation during the temperature range from −40 °C to 60 °C decrease from 3.680% to 1.577% and 3.880% to 1.913%, respectively. In addition, the bias value improves from 103.395 °/s to 22.478 °/s (optimized 78.26%). The bias stability and angular rate walking parameter are also optimized to 45.97% and 16.08%, respectively, which verify the method proposed in this paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
