Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for providing dynamic measurements of the grade of a road bed provides correction for accelerations of the carrying vehicle. A tilt transducer, responsive to both the angle and sense of inclination and to accelerations of the vehicle is used to measure the angle of displacement. The time rate of change of velocity signal derived from the motion of the vehicle is used to provide a signal corresponding to the vehicular acceleration. The acceleration signal level is adjusted to cancel acceleration sensed by the transducer, thereby providing an output reflecting the true angular grade reading.
