Abstract

The paper presents the results from the tests of an RR-type MEMS gyro developed by Elektropribor, St. Petersburg, Russia. The experimental estimates of gyro performance variation during centrifuge, vibration, and shock tests are given. The dependences of the gyro parameters on the mechanical effects are obtained, and ways of reducing the vibration and shock influence on the gyro performance are found.
