Resonant micro-optical gyroscope combination closed-loop noise suppression

Abstract

.In the development of miniaturized optical gyroscopes, the resonant micro-optical gyroscope (RMOG) is the most representative sensor of new optical gyroscopes. However, in the manufacturing process of optical elements, the influence of backscattering and optical Kerr noise limits the performance of RMOG. A method of suppressing optical Kerr noise generated by the front end by compensating the optical power difference while suppressing the backscattering noise is introduced. In this method, we study the optimal strategy of double-phase modulation frequency to obtain the maximum spectral gap of clockwise and counterclockwise light, so as to suppress the error related to backscattered light. At the same time, the influence of Kerr noise on the optical path is reduced through the high-precision feedback loop of the intensity modulator. Based on Allan variance, the long-term deviation stability of RMOG reaches 0.98 deg/h.
