Model | Box Flip* (rank; details) | Transfer Function (rank; description) | Clip and Linearity(rank; description) | Wide-band Noise (bits PTP over ± 2 g) | Double Integration (rank; description) | General Comments | Sum of ranks and viability for ANSS |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Droid‡ | Rank 3; sens. 0.1 / 0.8 / 1.3; off. 0.1 / 0.3 / 3.7; orient. 0.15 / 1.04 / 1.88; polarities not typical | Rank 5; asinusoidal waveforms; generally reasonable† responses; used time-domain rms | Rank 3; asinusoidal waveforms; used time-domain rms; X and Y responses reasonable but Z anomalous | Rank 5; 13.7 | Rank 5; unrecognizable waveform and large wander | Needs reliable, higher sample rates (100 to200 sps); must not drop samples | Rank sum 21; Unacceptable inpresent form mostly because of failed integration and low,uneven sample rates |
GCDC | Rank 4; sens. 0.3 / 2.0 / 2.5; off. 0.1 / 0.4 / 2.4; orient. 0.91 / 1.68 / 2.59; polarities not typical | Rank 3; reasonable response but sample-rate is unstable; used time-domain rms | Rank 3; X and Y reasonable; Z anomalous | Rank 1; 17.1 | Rank 3; mostly good waveforms but two examples of badbaseline excursions,probably due to dropped samples during motion | Needs reliable, higher sample rates (100 to200 sps); must not drop samples | Rank sum 15; Unacceptable inpresent form because of dropped samples and low sample rate |
JWF14 | Rank 1; for 2 g only: sens. 0.1 / 0.9 / 2.1; off. 0.1 / 0.9 / 1.4 (Z large); orient. 0.45 / 0.79 / 1.18; polarities are typical | Ranks all 1 (ties); reasonable responses, flat midband and probably to 0 Hz; soft shouldered at high frequencies,but within 3 dB to~20 Hz (80 Hz for Phidgets) | Rank 2; plausible responses but quite variable roll-off frequencies | Rank 4; 14.6 | Rank 4; excessive velocity hysteresis; waveform generally fair; baseline wander somewhat high | Double integration test poor (large baseline instability and hysteresis) | Rank sum 12; Unacceptable in present form principally for low resolution and poor integration |
O-NaviA and B | Rank 5; sens. 0.0 / 1.0 / 2.1; off. 1.1 / 1.9 / 5.3 (Z large); orient. 0.37 / 0.66 / 1.31; polarities not typical | Rank 1; reasonable responses but noticeably low sensitivities | Rank 2; 16.1 | Rank 1 (tie); acceptable waveforms and baseline wander; some hysteresis | Hysteresis and peak sample rates should be improved; in other respects viable | Rank sum 9; Acceptable |

Phidget | Rank 2; sens. 0.1 / 0.3 / 2.4; off. 0.3 / 0.5 / 1.5; orient. 0.12 / 0.90 / 2.28; polarities not typical | Rank 1; reasonable responses but with somewhat variable sensitivities | Rank 3; 15.2 | Rank 1 (tie); acceptable waveforms and baseline wander; slight hysteresis | Only model tested that reaches ≥ 200 sps with available software | Rank sum 8; Acceptable |
