Tactical UAV Navigation and Control System

Customer Background

A UAV system integrator providing high-reliability flight control and navigation systems for tactical military UAVs, requiring stable sensor output under high-vibration and high-G maneuvering conditions.

Challenges

• High-bandwidth, low-latency angular rate feedback required during high-speed maneuvering (high-G turns, rapid acceleration).
• Strict SWaP constraints: compact size (60×60×30mm class) and lightweight (<160g).
• Performance stability across full temperature range (-40°C～+70°C).

GyroSens Solution

• GyroSens provided the GSGYR112F single-axis fiber optic gyroscope:
• All-digital closed-loop operating mode based on Sagnac effect.
• 1-second startup, reaches nominal specifications immediately with no preheating.
• Bias stability <0.1°/h (high-precision model), random walk <0.01°/√h.
• Excellent shock and vibration resistance for tactical UAV environments.
• Interference fringe recognition technology supporting full dynamic range cold start.

Results

UAV attitude control precision improved by 35% during high-speed maneuvering. The system operates reliably down to -40°C. Multiple tactical UAV platforms have adopted this model in production.
