Whole-angle MEMs gyroscopes : challenges and opportunities / Doruk Senkal, Andrei M. Shkel.

"Coriolis Vibratory Gyroscopes (CVGs) can be divided into two broad categories based on the gyroscope's mechanical element: (Type 1) degenerate mode gyroscopes, which have x-y symmetry, and (Type 2) non-degenerate mode gyroscopes, which are designed intentionally to be asymmetric in x and...
