ABSTRACT:
An error reducer for reducing rotation rate errors, arising because of polarization modes coupling and differing polarization modes characteristics associated with a coiled optical fiber in a rotation sensor, by causing an electromagnetic wave source to direct electromagnetic waves propagating in one of said opposing directions to oscillate in frequency value between frequencies occurring in adjacent opposite polarization mode resonances of those waves.
