Abstract

The dynamic characterization of accelerometers is the prerequisite and insurance for highly accurate measurement of dynamic acceleration signals. The main problem of dynamic characterization is the lack of effective methods to deal with model coefficients and the order coupling effect, which could severely influence the identification accuracy. This paper presents a novel approach to solve the identification coupling problem through synchronous iteration and compensation. In order to guarantee the precision of the dynamic model, the Hopkinson bar dynamic calibration system with a traceable excitation acceleration signal is proposed. The feasibility of dynamic modelling is proved by the data comparison of experiment result and model regression result in the time domain. Based on the dynamic model, a dynamic compensation model is established, which improves the dynamic performance by frequency coverage extension. Finally, the results of the dynamic modelling and dynamic compensation are demonstrated by means of the calibration experiment in the paper.
