Abstract
This chapter focuses on the engineering work about the dual-polarization IFOG, and obtains preliminary test results. It reached a bias stability of 0.01 °/h, and a scale factor nonlinearity of 150 ppm. Engineering prototype performance test verifies the fundamental theories of this dissertation. IFOG engineering prototype construction involves optical circuit design, electronic circuit design, software development, mechanical design, and many other aspects. The research group has a dozen researchers to participate in them. My main work is involved in the part of optical circuit design.
