IEEE Draft Standard Specification Format Guide and Test Procedure for Linear, Single-Axis, Nongyroscopic Accelerometers Corrigenda 1: Annex K & L Changes (Revision of IEEE 1293-1998)

Specification and test requirements for Linear, Single-Axis, Nongyroscopic Accelerometers for use as a sensor in attitude control systems, linear displacement measuring systems, and linear rate measuring systems are defined. The specification format guide and test procedure standard applies to force-rebalance accelerometers (pendulous or translational proof mass), vibrating beam accelerometers (VBAs), and micromechanical accelerometers that range from lesser accuracy to high accuracy devices.
