The push-pull driving is adopted and in-phase AC and reverse-phase DC voltages are applied in the driving electrodes placed in both sides of the active combs, respectively. Driving performance analyses show that the frequency spectrum between driving moments and noise signals is separated. Therefore, the model of the closed-loop control is set up with the phase lock loop (PLL). The requirements for phases and gains of the sinusoidal selfdrive-oscillation are met by PLL, thus the closed-loop circuit reaches the self-drive-oscillation. Phase conditions of the sinusoidal self-drive-oscillation and the characteristic of phase discrimination of the PLL are used to eliminate the coupling between driving and sense signals, and noise signals. Finally, experimental results show that the variations of both the driving frequency and the amplitude are all under 0.02%. The precision and the reliability of the gyroscope are greatly improved.展开更多

By applying the strobe correlator used widely in global positioning system (GPS) scenarios to Galileo E1 signals, it can be found that the strobe correlator has an undesirable level of performance when the delay of multipath signals is about 0. 5 chip.

The multipath error envelopes between the strobe correlator and the ELSC are compared for Galileo E1 signals. The simulation results indicate that the ELSC performs excellently on multipath mitigation, and can be applied in both Galileo scenarios and GPS scenarios.展开更多
