Abstract
The random walk coefficient of fiber optic gyroscope (FOG) is a kind of gyroscope output error accumulated over time by white noise. In order to achieve 100s bias stability of high precision FOG less than 0.0001 °/h, the random walk coefficient of FOG is less than 0.0000167 °/√ht. Based on the analysis of the factors affecting the random walk coefficient of FOG, a random walk coefficient model is established in this paper. Considering the characteristics of high precision FOG such as oversampling and low bandwidth, a method to reduce the random walk coefficient of high precision FOG is proposed. Through the theoretical analysis of the above methods, the feasibility of the method is proved theoretically. Furthermore, the comparative test of the precision of the high precision fiber optic gyroscope using the above method proves the feasibility of the above method. The random walk coefficient of the gyroscope is significantly reduced, which makes the bias stability of the high precision fiber optic gyroscope achieve the design goal.
