| GG: main novelties and advantages (II) |
|
|
|
|
| • | Capacitance read-out at room temperature: sensitive, |
||
| reliable,
well known |
|||
|
|
|
|
| • | Fast
spin makes many
perturbing effects DC (constraints |
||
| on
payload and s/c released) |
|||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| • | 2-axis sensitivity (in the plane perp. to symmetry axis): |
|||||
| maintains
2 DOF of signal; allows supercritical rotation |
||||||
| (Þ self-centering
+ high frequency modulation); |
||||||
| improves
sensitivity by factor Ö2
w.r.t having only one |
||||||
| sensitive
axis |
||||||
|
|
|
| • | Ground testing of FULL
payload prototype possible !!!! |
