New generation fiber optic gyroscopes

Abstract

The work presents research on the operation of a fiber-optic gyroscope. It consists of the following components: a superluminescent laser diode (wavelength 1550 nm), a circulator, a splitter, a phase modulator, and a 500-meter optical fiber coil (fiber type: Panda). Figure 1 illustrates the operation of this gyroscope [1], which meets the average accuracy metrics of existing analogs.
