【 摘 要 】

This paper presents a digital auto-oscillator for mechanically dithering Ring Laser Gyro (RLG) and method for automatic control of angular oscillation parameters of inertial sensor. A drive signal pulse-width modulation of the auto-oscillator torque sensor excites angular oscillations.

Digital auto-oscillator circuit features are as follows: excluding the analog angle sensors from RLG structure, dither signal remover at the RLG output is digital filter, angular rate positive feedback, pulse-width control of auto-oscillator torque sensor by digital signal which provides a preset mode of the dither with random noise.

The paper presents a designed mathematical model of the RLG measurement channel together with the auto-oscillator. The mathematical model includes two nonlinearities. The computational experiment allowed us to conduct the following researches: transition process of establishing auto-oscillations since switching on, quasi-steady auto-oscillation mode with frequency and amplitude noise, parameters of auto-oscillations affected by severe operating conditions such as object maneuvers at high speeds and accelerations, high-frequency angular vibration of the RLG base near the resonance frequency of a dither remover. The paper shows efficiency of autooscillator with the specified parameters of a combined type dither with frequency fluctuations.
