摘要： An exemplary resonator fiber optic gyroscope comprises a resonator having an optical fiber loop; a light source configured to generate a light beam; and an intensity modulation circuit coupled between the light source and the resonator. The intensity modulation circuit is configured to modulate the intensity of the light beam from the light source to output an intensity modulated signal to the resonator. The intensity modulation circuit is configured to produce the intensity modulated signal such that harmonics of the intensity modulated signal which overlap a primary wave of a counter-propagating light beam in the resonator have an amplitude below a predetermined threshold. Amplitudes below the predetermined threshold are negligible.

摘要： Systems and methods for performing modulation error correction. An example system applies common phase/frequency modulation to first and second laser beams, a first intensity modulation to the first modulated beam, and a second intensity modulation to the second modulated beam. Signals outputted are demodulated according to the frequency of the common phase/frequency modulation. Then the first of these demodulated signals is demodulated based on the frequency of the intensity modulation of the first beam, and the second of these demodulated signals is demodulated based on the frequency of the intensity modulation of the second beam. Then, rate of rotation is determined based on demodulated signals. Frequencies of the intensity modulations are unequal and not harmonically related, and intensity modulation encodes each light beam with a unique signature.

摘要： Systems and methods for compensating for nonlinear phase shift accumulation in an optical ring resonator. An example method includes sending a first beam in a clockwise direction around the optical ring resonator and sending a second beam in a counterclockwise direction around the optical ring resonator. Then, nonlinear phase shift accumulation of the first and second beams is compensated for within the optical ring resonator. Compensating includes creating a negative Kerr effect phase shift for each beam based on an estimate of accumulated positive Kerr effect.

摘要： A computer-implementable method of reducing bias instability in a fiber optic gyroscope includes receiving, with a computer, a first data set enabling the computer to generate a model of the gyroscope, including a light source, a photodetector, and a plurality of optical components and fiber sections coupling the light source to the photodetector, and a light signal to be propagated from the light source to the photodetector. The light signal has an associated wavelength spectrum. For each wavelength of the spectrum, the relative lightwave intensity reaching the photodetector is calculated. A signal-wave intensity and a spurious-wave intensity are determined from the calculated relative lightwave intensities. A scale factor is determined from the signal-wave intensity. The spurious-wave intensity is integrated over the wavelength spectrum of the light source to obtain a total spurious-wave intensity. A rate bias error is determined based on the total spurious-wave intensity and the scale factor.

摘要： Methods and apparatus are provided for attenuating rotation rate errors in a resonator gyro. The gyro includes a ring resonator having a hollow core optical fiber coil and optical elements that are selected and/or oriented to reduce stray light that may be present in input light beams introduced to the ring resonator. The resonator has a predetermined mode. One of the optical elements partially transmits a portion of the input light beam to a first end of the fiber coil while partially transmitting a portion of the input light beam to a filter. Light having the predetermined mode is accepted into the first end of the fiber coil, and the filter accepts light of the input light beam having a corresponding mode. Transmission components of the circulating light beams indicates resonance peaks of the counter-propagating directions of the ring resonator.
