Abstract:
A rotation rate sensor includes first, second, third and fourth structures that are each movable relative to a substrate, a drive device configured to deflect each of the first, second, third, and fourth structures essentially parallel to a drive direction and out of respective resting positions of the first, second, third, and fourth structures, such that, at a first frequency, the first and fourth structures are excitable to an oscillation that is essentially in-phase relative to each other and essentially in phase-opposition relative to the second and third structures, and, at a second frequency, the first and second structures are excitable to an oscillation that is essentially in-phase relative to each other and essentially in phase-opposition relative to the third and fourth structures.

Claim (Index 17):
A method for operating a rotation rate sensor, the method comprising:\n deflecting, using a drive signal and at a first frequency, each of a first structure, a second structure, a third structure, and a fourth structure of the sensor essentially parallel to a drive direction such that the first and fourth structures are excited to an oscillation that is essentially in-phase relative to each other and essentially in phase-opposition relative to the second and third structures; and deflecting, using a drive signal and at a second frequency, each of a first structure, a second structure, a third structure, and a fourth structure of the sensor essentially parallel to the drive direction such that the first and second structures are excited to an oscillation that is essentially in-phase relative to each other and essentially in phase-opposition relative to the third and fourth structures.
