ABSTRACT:
The disclosure pertains to a device for the measurement, in a wide range, of a non-reciprocal phase shift generated in a ring interferometer, to a measuring method and, chiefly , to an optic fiber gyrometer. It also concerns a method of measurement, notably a method for the measurement of rotation speed. The disclosure concerns an improvement in a measuring device comprising a phase modulation device enabling the phase to be automatically locked to an interference fringe of the device. The improvement lies mainly in the fact that the light source emits, in the ring, several light frequencies so as to make it possible to remove uncertainty on the order (0, .pi., 2.pi., etc.) of the interference fringe on which the automatic control is achieved. The disclosure can be applied notably to the making of devices for the measurement of angular speeds. The disclosure can be aplied chiefly to the making of optic fiber gyrometers.
