The key to nonlinear error suppression for PIGA is the precise measurement and compensation of the micro product of inertia (MPOI) of the float assembly. However, the existing equipment and procedure for product of inertia (POI) measurement and compensation do not meet the accuracy requirements for MPOI. To solve this problem, novel equipment and procedures are proposed for the measurement and compensation of MPOI. The principle of the proposed measurement method is to simulate the error produced by MPOI in PIGA by using a single-axis turntable to rotate the float assembly along the eccentric axis to generate a centrifugal moment due to MPOI. The principle of the proposed compensation method is to remove the asymmetric mass to reduce the MPOI to zero. Through experimental validation, it is concluded that: (1) the measurement and compensation accuracy of the proposed method are better than 1 \u00d7 10\u221210 kg\u00b7m2 and 3 \u00d7 10\u221210 kg\u00b7m2, respectively; (2) the proposed method is validated as the MPOI is reduced from 7.3 \u00d7 10\u22129 kg\u00b7m2 to 3 \u00d7 10\u221210 kg\u00b7m2 for a real float assembly in PIGA, and the quadratic error of PIGA is reduced from 10\u22125\/g0 to 3 \u00d7 10\u22127\/g0.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23031564","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,1]],"date-time":"2023-02-01T01:36:59Z","timestamp":1675215419000},"page":"1564","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Precise Measurement and Compensation of the Micro Product of Inertia for Float Assembly in Pendulous Integrating Gyroscopic Accelerometers"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Xiaojun","family":"Zhou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Instrumentation and Optoelectronic Engineering, Beihang University, Beijing 100191, China"},{"name":"Beijing Institute of Aerospace Control Devices, Beijing 100039, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gongliu","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Instrumentation and Optoelectronic Engineering, Beihang University, Beijing 100191, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wentao","family":"Niu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Beijing Institute of Aerospace Control Devices, Beijing 100039, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8895-4188","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yongqiang","family":"Tu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Instrumentation and Optoelectronic Engineering, Beihang University, Beijing 100191, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Cai, Q., Yang, G., Quan, W., Song, N., Tu, Y., and Liu, Y.
