Abstract
The performance of the capacitive gap-sensing system plays a critical role in a satellite-based gravity gradiometer that is developed using an electrostatic accelerometer. The capacitive sensing gain mainly depends on the stabilized injection bias amplitude, the gain of the transformer bridge, and the trans-impedance amplifier. Previous studies have indicated that amplitude noise is the main factor influencing the noise of capacitive displacement detection. Analyzing the capacitive gap-sensing system indicates that the amplitude, frequency, phase, and broadband noises of the stabilized injection bias have varying levels of influence on the performance of the detection system. This paper establishes a model to clarify the mentioned effects. The validation of the sub-tests demonstrates that the analysis and evaluation results of various noise coefficients are highly consistent with the model's predicted outcomes.
