Abstract
A method for calibrating the sensors present within a drilling tool, whereby the calibration occurs downhole and in-situ within the drilling tool. The calibration method may use the rotation of the drilling tool which typically occurs during drilling operations, whereby the drilling tool is rotating along the axis which follows the drilling trajectory. Direction and speed of rotation of the drilling tool may contribute to the in-situ calibration of the sensors, which may include angular rate sensors, magnetometers, and accelerometers.
