Research of barometric altitude measurement technology

Abstract

The atmospheric pressure measurement is closed related to the aircraft flight and it is the key factor directly affecting the aviation flight safety. With the development of aircraft, the barometric altitude measurement technology is more and more prominent and important. According to the barometric altitude measurement principle and the general barometric altitude measurement methods, four kinds of measurement methods of bellows, vibration cylinder, silicon resonant and silicon piezoresistance are analyzed with the principle and compared from the application.
