Abstract

An integrated optical chip (IOC) is the phase modulation actuator in a closed-loop interferometric fiber optic gyroscope (IFOG). Research on temperature characteristic of IOC is meaningful for high-precision IFOG working in harsh environment. We focus on the temperature modeling of the IOC modulation phase error. In theoretical analysis, based on the temperature dependence of the IOC equivalent capacitance, a model between IOC modulation phase error and temperature is proposed. Through experiments, the variation tendency of the IOC equivalent capacitance with temperature is first presented. Subsequently, the IOC modulation phase error is demonstrated to be linear with temperature, which verifies the effectiveness of the proposed model. We provide an error research direction of IOC for high-precision fiber optic gyroscopes.
