Temperature Characteristics and Error Compensation for Quartz Flexible Accelerometer

  • Reduction of error due to the influence of temperature on the quartz flexible accelerometer without any heating device is a difficult task, and is also a tendency for research and application. In this paper, static and dynamic temperature compensation models are established in order to reduce the temperature influence on accelerometer measurement accuracy. Combined with the experiment data, the relationship between the accelerometer output accuracy, temperature and the magnitude of acceleration is analyzed. The data collected from the temperature experiment show that output value of the accelerometer varies with temperature. The method of uniaxial quadrature experiment is adopted and the accelerometer output value is gauged at temperature ranging from -20℃ to 50℃. Having used the static and the dynamic temperature compensation models, the accelerometer temperature error compensation experiment is conducted and the compensated errors by the two models are analyzed. The result shows that the compensated value meets the technical requirements. Two technical indicators, the zero bias K0 and the scaling factor K1, which are used to measure the degree of accelerometers, are both improved and their fluctuation ranges are reduced.
