Background technology
Optical fibre gyro is a kind of optical fiber angular-rate sensor based on the Sagnac effect.Magnetic field of optical fibre gyro and temperature are two key factors that influence optical fibre gyroscope output accuracy.The additional non-reciprocal phase relevant with magnetic field is poor because magneto-optic effect, optical fibre gyro produce, and this phase differential changes along with the variation of external magnetic field size and direction, has reduced the zero stability partially of optical fibre gyro, has directly influenced the precision of gyro.Because the Shupe effect of temperature, thermograde becomes when fiber optic coils exists, the refractive index of fiber optic coils every bit changes in time, so the phase change difference of two-beam ripple through causing owing to temperature behind the fiber optic coils, therefore has the situation of zero drift to occur.
