ABSTRACT:
An error compensator for a resonator fiber optic gyroscope extracting characteristics from the output signal of a photodetector, receiving electromagnetic waves from the resonator, and combining them to result in a determination of substantially the rotation rate error that is due to the effect of a nonlinear refractive index occurring in the resonator. This determination can be used to compensate the system output signal to eliminate rotation rate errors of such a nature therefrom.
