Abstract
A MEMS gyroscope and a method for compensating drift of sensitivity of a MEMS gyroscope are disclosed. The method comprises demodulating an angular rate signal with an in-phase carrier signal for producing a raw rate signal, and obtaining a DC test signal The DC test signal is filtered for obtaining a raw test signal, and zeroing offset of the raw test signal is performed by comparing each sample of the raw test signal to a test signal normalization value for producing an offset zeroed test signal that represents a deviation of the sample of the raw test signal from the test signal normalization value. A sensitivity compensation multiplier is determined based upon the offset zeroed test signal and a predefined gain coefficient, and drift of sensitivity is compensated by multiplying the raw rate signal with the sensitivity compensation multiplier for providing a sensitivity compensated rate signal.
