Method for controlling a sensor with a quick-start vibrating resonator
View Patent ↗A method of controlling an inertial rotation sensor has a vibrating resonator having control channels and detection channels. During an operating stage each control channel (C 1 , C 2 ) is activated for a control duration and each detection channel (D 1 , D 2 ) is activated for a detection duration, in which the control and detection durations are applied at an operating ratio. Duyring a starting stage the control and detection durations are applied at a ratio that is modified in comparison with the operating ratio, so as to increase the control duration.
1. A method of controlling an inertial rotation sensor having a vibrating resonator including control channels and detection channels, the method comprising an operating stage during which each control channel is activated for a control duration and each detection channel is activated for a detection duration, in which the control and detection durations are applied at an operating ratio, wherein the method includes a starting stage in which the control and detection durations are applied at a ratio that is modified in comparison with the operating ratio so as to increase the control duration.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the detection duration allows the vibrating resonator to be set into vibration under control.
