About this document

Overview of Ring Laser Gyroscopes by siva is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This review paper discusses the ring laser gyro (RLG), one of the most widely developed optical gyroscopes based on the Sagnac effect. The RLG has long lifetime without maintenance, small size and mass, and low cost. It provides angle measurements with high resolution and accuracy. The main error sources that can limit RLG performance are gas flows in the active medium and frequency synchronization of counterpropagating waves. Particular attention is given to the locking phenomenon where the predominant inf
