Abstract

The microminiature inertial measurement system has many advantages compared with the traditional one, such as small size, light weight, low cost, little power consumption, high bearing capacity and long life. This paper describes a microminiature inertial measurement system, including total hardware, connections and operating theory. In order to evaluate its performance, a vehicle test was done. In addition, a special application to the measurement of launch movement parameters was introduced. Its integration with two GPS receivers was discussed, and the performance and applications of integrated systems were evaluated
