Abstract
Shupe error, a kind of bias error over temperature-varying environments, still exists even with strict quadrupolar winding pattern, and it affects the environment adaptability of fiber optical gyroscope (FOG) and limits its application. A novel configuration to realize optical compensation for Shupe error in FOG is promoted, employing the opposite polarity of Shupe error in two FOGs working with polarization-maintained (PM) fiber’s fast and slow axis, respectively, in a single PM fiber coil. Analysis is also made for polarization non-reciprocity (PNR) in both FOGs, based on which the optimum coupling angles between integrated optic chip and PM fiber coil are obtained to guarantee that Shupe error arising from both FOGs can be counteracted to zero, and PNR error is suppressed to be minimum at the same time.
