IEEE Standard Specification Format Guide and Test Procedure for Nongyroscopic Inertial Angular Sensors: Jerk, Acceleration, Velocity, and Displacement
This standard defines the requirements and test procedures for a [single, multi-] axis ongyroscopic angular [jerk, acceleration, velocity, displacement] sensor. The output is [an analog electrical signal, a digital electrical pulse train] proportional to angular [jerk, acceleration, velocity, displacement]. The electronics are to be considered part of the sensor to the extent specified herein. All parameters specified in this standard refer to the overall sensor output unless otherwise specified. The device will hereafter be referred to as the sensor.
Abstract
New IEEE Standard - Active.A guide is presented for the preparation of a specification and test procedure for an inertial angular sensor that provides a common meeting ground of terminolgy and practice for manufacturers and users of an array of sensors that have been developed to meet needs not easily met by traditional spinning-rotor gyroscopes. A test procedure for verifying that the specifications have been met is given. The standard is not intended to compete with existing standards for specific devices with highly specific models and error sources, such as spring-restrained rate gyros, but to provide a uniform guide for those inertial angular sensors that have not been covered elsewhere.
