Abstract(in English) Performance improvement of the resonator fiber optic gyro (R-FOG) is demonstrated by precisely controlling the bipolar digital serrodyne scheme. Suppression of the backscattering induced performance degradation is experimentally demonstrated. Previously, a method to automatically control the amplitude of the bipolar digital serrodyne phase modulation, and thus to suppress the backscattering induced degradation, was developed using the digital gain control function of the function generator with a field programmable gated array (FPGA) based digital signal processor. However, the suppression level was not satisfying. To improve the performance, a scheme employing a gain variable amplifier and the oversampling technique is newly incorporated into the R-FOG. Additionally, a lock-in detection scheme with 90° out-of-phase reference signal is proposed to generate an error signal for the control. With the proposed controlling methods for the bipolar digital scheme, improved bias stability is successfully demonstrated in the experiment.
