DEF

The drift rate in a single-degree-of-freedom gyro resulting from coherent oscillatory rates about the spin reference axis (SRA) and output reference axis (ORA).

OBS

It occurs only when gyro and loop dynamics allow the float motion to lag case motion when subjected to a rate about the output reference axis, resulting in a cross coupling of the spin reference axis rate. This drift rate is a function of the input rate amplitudes and the phase angle between them.
