Effective suppression of residual coherent phase error in a dual-polarization fiber optic gyroscope

Abstract: The impact of residual coherent phase error in a dual-polarization interferometric fiber optic gyroscope (IFOG) is investigated. Although it has been intuitively assumed that the coherence of a light source can be eliminated by a sufficient long fiber delay, the experiment and theory indicate that it still contributes a remarkable portion to long-term instability. After the residual coherent phase error is well handled, we demonstrate a dual-polarization IFOG with bias instability of 3.56×10°/h. Comparisons sh… Show more

“…Although we have analyzed the case of non-reciprocity induced by moving media, a similar phenomenon can be expected in non-reciprocal optical devices realized by magnetoplasmonic structures [31,32], or by recently reported opto-mechanically induced non-reciprocity [33,34]. Such motion induced non-reciprocity is widely used in Fiber Optic Gyroscopes (FOG) [35] and is still an active area of research [36][37][38]. Recently, Weernink et al have studied forces induced by breaking time-reversal symmetry in a rotating particle near a planar surface [39] and similar systems can be used to verify our theoretical predictions.…”

“…The optical routing is composed of light source, multifunction integrated optic circuit (MIOC), and fiber-optic coil. The MIOC is used for splitting, polarizing and phasemodulating [16], [26], [27]. The light source outputs light waves with wavelength stability and high power.…”

“…In order to improve the performance of FRIs, research works were dedicated to mitigating two types of error sources from perturbations [6]. One is the intrinsic perturbations such as polarization cross-couplings in fibers [7,8] and splicing misalignments between fibers [9,10]. The other is the external perturbations from surrounding environments such as thermal fields [11][12][13], magnetic fields [14][15][16], and thermal stress fields [17][18][19].…”
