At present, existing wide range Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems (MEMS) inertial sensors have relatively lower precision and direct measurement of the missile’s high-rotation motion inevitably uses a large-range sensor. To achieve high-precision navigation, this paper proposes a novel Semi-strap-down Stabilized Platform (SSP) based on the Missile-borne Semi-Strap-down Inertial Navigation System, which is used to mount sensors and lowers sensor range requirements through isolating the high-rotational motion of missile. First, the author innovatively puts forward a dynamic model under missile-borne environment, then analyses the influence of SSP quality on the range of gyro according to the dynamic model of the SSP. Finally, when the angle of attack of the missile is 2°, the best quality of the SSP with minimum roll angular rate amplitude was calculated through the Runge-Kutta method and the mass gradient control method. Experiments have been carried out by using a high-precision, tri-axial flight simulation turntable to validate the viability of the method. Experiments show that under the same conditions, the angular velocity of the new optimized SSP with the best quality design is reduced to 1/3 of the unoptimized SSP, and the measured roll angle error is reduced to 60% of the unoptimized measurement. The results indicate that the novel SSP has better performance segregating the high-speed rotational motion, and provides theoretical guidance for the high-precision small-range sensor instead of the low-precision wide-range sensor. In addition, the first proposed SSP quality selection method creates a new idea for the improvement of the positioning accuracy in the missile-borne environment.
