Abstract

A novel all-digital scheme for open-loop fiber-optic gyroscope (FOG), where only two key points of output wave were digitized directly, has been proposed. A control equation, with which the modulation depth of PZT modulator is stable when setting the modulation depth as 4.35 and a calculation equation, with which the Sagnac phase can be worked out, are derived. A modulation depth control and an automatic correlation sampling and a gain control technology were induced. A photo-type FOG was made and tested. The good performance was achieved.
