Dual-Polarization Two-Port Fiber-Optic Gyroscope

by Zinan Wang

Book Overview

This thesis demonstrates and investigates novel dual-polarization interferometric fiber-optic gyroscope (IFOG) configurations, which utilize optical compensation between two orthogonal polarizations to suppress errors caused by polarization nonreciprocity. Further, it provides a scheme for dual-polarization two-port IFOGs and details their unique benefits.

Dual-polarization IFOGs break through the restriction of the "minimal scheme," which...
