Polarisation control in resonant-ring fibre gyroscopes
Abstract
The polarization requirements of the resonant-ring fiber gyroscope are analyzed. A birefringence-dependent scale factor error and zero stability problem are elucidated. Reduction of these errors using birefringence modulation and differential attenuation are discussed.
