A Simple Theoretical Comparison between Two Basic Schemes in Function of the Earth's North Pole Detection: The Static Method

The objective of this paper is to compare two gyrocompass' schemes for the detection of Earth's true north. These schemes are refered to as dynamic and static methods. We present a model to characterize the sensitivity of each model as a function of the output signal of the sensor element....

Description
Summary:The objective of this paper is to compare two gyrocompass' schemes for the detection of Earth's true north. These schemes are refered to as dynamic and static methods. We present a model to characterize the sensitivity of each model as a function of the output signal of the sensor element. We use a fiber optic gyroscope (FOG) as the sensor element.
