The phase-delay error of the circuit system is the primary source of the output error observed in the hemispherical resonator gyroscope (HRG). Additionally, the temperature-dependent nature of the phase-delay error results in a deterioration of the initial calibration parameters, which, in turn, significantly impairs the performance of the gyroscope in its intended application. This paper proposes a self-calibration method to effectively suppress the impact of phase-delay error on the application performance of gyroscopes.

To enhance the precision of the hemispherical resonator gyroscope for use in tasks with large angular velocities and angular accelerations, this paper investigates the standing wave precession of a non-ideal hemispherical resonator under nonlinear high-intensity dynamic conditions. Based on the thin shell theory of elasticity, a dynamic model of a hemispherical resonator is established by using Lagrange's second kind equation.
