A precession angle tracking algorithm is developed to enable the gyro to switch automatically between rate and rate-integrating modes at preset rate points through a digital control system within the gyro. We also propose a vibrating amplitude control method for the rate-integrating mode that directly extracts the angular rate output to ensure switching stability. In rate mode, the bias instability and angle random walk of the gyro reach 0.106\u00b0\/h and 0.011\u00b0\/\u221ah, respectively. Additionally, an input range of over \u00b15000\u00b0\/s is measured in rate-integrating mode. The scale factor nonlinearity reaches approximately 116 ppm over the full-scale range. The control system implements effective steering control of the gyroscope, with a switching delay of 10 ms from rate mode to rate-integrating mode and 100 ms from rate-integrating to rate mode. The proposed system actualizes a new type of gyroscope with high accuracy and a wide input range, which combines the benefits of rate and rate-integrating modes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s22124334","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,13]],"date-time":"2022-06-13T02:01:44Z","timestamp":1655085704000},"page":"4334","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Automatic Rate and Rate-Integrating Mode-Switchable Axisymmetric Gyroscope"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"22","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7387-9050","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lin","family":"Xuan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electronic and Information Engineering, Soochow University, Suzhou 251000, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mingyang","family":"Lu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electronic and Information Engineering, Soochow University, Suzhou 251000, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jing","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electronic and Information Engineering, Soochow University, Suzhou 251000, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shuwen","family":"Guo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electronic and Information Engineering, Soochow University, Suzhou 251000, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1614-9606","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dacheng","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electronic and Information Engineering, Soochow University, Suzhou 251000, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Shkel, A.M.
