Attitude angle measurement method based on the three-dimensional accelerometer

On the basis of a study of measuring inclination angle with a two-dimensional accelerometer, a principle method using a three-dimensional accelerometer to measure attitude angle is analysed on the condition of micro-rotating. The method can reduce random systematic errors caused by uniaxial or biaxial output of the two-dimensional accelerometer. It can simultaneously measure both inclination angle and roll angle. So hardware selection, hardware circuit design and experiments are done: simulate the roll and tilt movement of the special objects and compare the solver results with the actual results. The principle method achieves preferable results, and provides a theoretical support for attitude determination of a particular industry as well.
