The basic principle and characteristics of a DTG(dynamically tuned gyroscope) are presented in this paper, which is used for the detection of disturbance and for the stabilization of gimbal. An accurate model of the rate mode DTG is proposed. This model has a resonance characteristics which is more similar to the characteristics of practical systems than the conventional 2nd order system model. Therefore, this model is applicable to the general rate mode gyroscope. Some problems at using DTG for a real electro optical tracking system are discussed and a solution is described.

본 논문에서는 자이로스코프를 이용한 자율이동로봇의 주행기록계에 대한 오차 보상을 제안한다. 자율이동로봇의 주행 시 주행기록계는 슬립과 마찰 등으로 인해 많은 방향각에 대해 오차를 포함하고 있어서 주행기록계에만 의존하여 주행하기 힘들다. 주행기록계가 슬립과, 회전에 대한 단점을 보안하기 위해 방향각에 대해 자이로스코프를 사용하여, 자이로스코프로부터 얻은 데이터와 주행기록계의 데이터를 융합하여 주행기록계의 오차누적에 의한 이동로봇의 방향각에 대한 비정확성을 보상하기 위한 알고리듬을 제안한다. 대부분의 주행 시 주행기록계의 값을 신뢰하고 자율이동로봇의 순간적인 각도변화에 대해서는 자이로스코프를 이용하였다. 이동로봇의 직진 주행 실험 결과 주행기록계만을 사용하여 주행했을 때는 방향각 오차가 크게 발생하였다. 그러나 주행기록계와 자이로스코프의 데이터를 융합하여 적용한 시스템의 성능이 주행기록계만 이용한 경우에 비해 보다 정확함을 실험을 통해 확인하였다. 이동로봇의 안정성 있는 경로 추종을 통해 이동로봇의 보다 넓은 영역에서의 작업이 기대된다.

This paper presents a performance improvement result with the aid of closed feedback controller loop to a micro gyroscope. The dynamic model of a micro gyroscope is derived and a conventional proportional and derivative controller is designed via frequency domain analysis. The proposed control loop is implemented using several analog devices and applied to the SNU-Bosch MEMS gyroscope to check its performance improvement in real environment. The experiments demonstrated the performance improvement with the proposed feedback control loop. The bandwidth, linearity, and bias stability are improved to 78 Hz, 0.504 %, and 0.043 deg/sec, respectively, from 35 Hz, 2.07 %, and 0.066 deg/sec of open loop system.

In this paper, we present the new angular velocity pick-off method for DTG (dynamically tuned gyroscope) which is widely used in various inertial navigation systems and motion control systems. In case of the external angular velocity input, the proposed scheme can make a smaller tilt-angle rather than that of conventional PI method in the transient and steady state because it has an additional inner rebalance loop with a mathematical model of the real gyroscope. So, without any mechanical redesign of the DTG, its dynamic range can be enlarged by the proposed method. The theoretical analysis and simulation model of DTG with the proposed scheme are given. Finally, the proposed scheme is verified.

In this paper, we present a new approach to extract the g-sensitivity scale-factor error for a MEMS gyroscope. MEMS gyroscopes, based on the use of both angular momentum and the Coriolis effect, have a g-sensitivity error due to mass unbalance. Generally, the g-sensitivity error is not considered in general use of gyroscopes, but it deserves our attention if we are to develop for tactical class performance and reliability. The g-sensitivity error during vehicle flight increases navigation error; so it must be analyzed and compensated for the use of MEMS IMU for high dynamics vehicle systems. Therefore, we analyzed how to extract the g-sensitivity scale-factor error from the inertial sensor error model. Furthermore we propose a new method to extract the g-sensitivity error using flight motion simulator. We verified our proposed method with experimental results.

A polarization maintaining fiber optic gyroscope was constructed having an optical loss of about 25 dB. Using the earth rotation rate as a reference, the long term stability of better than $3^{\circ}/hr$ and the rms short term noise of $0.6^{\circ}/hr/{\sqrt{Hz}}$ were obtained.

In this study, the process of providing information necessary to remove physical barriers such as road slopes that obstruct the activities of the disabled is in progress. Through experiments, we implement a quantified road surface roughness index that enables the implementation of IoT-based systems necessary for the elderly and the disabled to safely move to their destination. As a preliminary study, a road surface measurement device using a gyroscope was devised. To check the roughness and flatness of the road surface, X, Y displacement, and acceleration displacement were measured using a gyroscope. By calculating the measured data, the roughness and flatness of the road surface were quantified from 0 to 100. We implemented an algorithm that divides this index into 4 stages, displays it on a map, and provides it to users. Finally, a system for the disabled and elderly electric wheelchair users to secure basic mobility was established.

The control moment gyroscope(CMG) can be used for essential balancing control of a one-wheeled mobile robot. A single-gimbal CMG has a simple structure and can supply strong restoring torque against external disturbances. However, the CMG generates unwanted directional torque also besides the restoring torque; the unwanted directional torque causes instability in the one-wheeled robot control system that has high rotational degrees of freedom. This study proposes a control system for a one-wheeled mobile robot by using a CMG scissored pair to eliminate the unwanted directional torque. The well-known LQR control algorithm is designed for robustness against modeling error in the dynamic motion equations of a one-wheeled robot. Computer simulations for 3D nonlinear dynamic equations are carried out to verify the proposed control system with the CMG scissored pair and the LQR control algorithms.

There are many position fixing systems in the world from ancient times. But the principles are to compare the position to want to know with the known position already. The position finding system which is not restricted by weather condition and/or electronic apparatus has been sought. The best system is the GPS as far. But the system has the fatal faults as follows; 1. to depend on satellite's accuracy, 2. not to use underwater. This paper is to investigate theoretically position fixing and north finding by using free gyroscope. This paper introduce a position fixing and north finding method by measuring inclination of 2 free gyroscopes. And this system does not depend on the weather condition and underwater condition. What is more, it could use on the planets, if the gravity exits.
