Nonlinear amplification techniques for inertial MEMS sensors

Inertial sensors, specifically MEMS gyroscopes, suffer in performance with down scaling. Non linear amplification techniques, such as parametric resonance, can be employed in many resonant structures to alleviate this degradation in performance, improve sensitivity and Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR)...
