CARRIER MODULATING ACCELEROMETER
First Claim
1. An accelerometer module for measuring acceleration in a stabilized platform system comprising:
- a power supply configured to accept an input AC reference signal and to generate a regulated DC signal and a reference signal in phase with the input AC reference signal;
an accelerometer configured to receive the regulated DC signal from said power supply and to generate an output signal in response to an external force acting on the accelerometer module; and
an analog multiplier unit configured to receive the output signal from the accelerometer and the reference signal from the power supply, and to modulate the reference signal with the output signal so as to output a modulated accelerometer signal.
