Abstract
An angular accelerometer which generates a directly usable signal in stationary coils proportional to the instantaneous acceleration rate of a rotating element. Errors due to wobble, eccentricity and non-homogeneity of the rotating element are reduced by a symmetrical generation of flux which links the element, and a symmetrical detection of flux produced by current flow in the element.
