  • Patent number: 11874113
    Abstract: A bidirectional optical-carrying microwave resonance system based on a circulator structure and a method for detecting angular velocity by said system. A high-stability optical-carrying microwave of which polarization states in forward and reverse directions are perpendicular is generated in an optical fiber ring by utilizing a regenerative mold locking technology, a cavity length control technology, and a polarization state separation technology, and the optical-carrying microwave is used for measuring a rotational angular velocity. The circulator structure is adopted and the bidirectional optical-carrying microwave resonance is achieved by means of a bidirectional regenerative mode locking technology. A reciprocal bidirectional optical-carrying microwave resonance system is achieved on the basis of a non-reciprocal error elimination technology of a wide-spectrum optical interferometer.

  • Patent number: 11644312
    Abstract: Disclosed is a single-axis rotational inertial navigation system based on bidirectional optical communication and wireless power supply. The system comprises a bidirectional optical communication unit, a wireless power supply unit, a motor driving unit, an inertial measurement unit, a rotating-end information acquisition and processing unit, and a fixed-end information receiving and processing unit. According to the system, in the same transmission channel, information interaction between a rotating end and a fixed end is achieved by adopting infrared light communication and visible light communication; and medium-power high-efficiency wireless energy transmission under a specific distance is achieved by adopting a magnetically coupled resonant wireless power supply method. The design of a high-accuracy motor driving unit is achieved by adopting the design of combining a frameless torque motor with an incremental circular grating and double reading heads.

  • Patent number: 11378401
    Abstract: A polarization-maintaining fully-reciprocal bi-directional optical carrier microwave resonance system and an angular velocity measurement method thereof. In the system, highly stable optical carrier microwaves are generated in a clockwise direction and a counterclockwise direction in the same resonant cavity, and are used to measure the angular velocity of rotation of a carrier apparatus. A fully reciprocal ring-shaped resonant cavity structure is used to achieve a fully reciprocal bi-directional optical resonance system. A polarization state separation technique is used to separate an optical signal into two wavelengths, and optical signals with perpendicular polarization states are transmitted in opposite directions in a sensing ring, thereby improving the measurement capability of the sensing ring. Bi-directional optical carrier microwave resonance is achieved by using a phase tracking structure and a regenerative mode locking technique.

  • Patent number: 9568319
    Abstract: The present invention provides an angular velocity detection method adopting a bi-directional full reciprocal coupling optoelectronic oscillator, which is implemented on an optical carrier microwave gyroscope. The optical carrier microwave gyroscope is a bi-directional resonant optical carrier microwave angular velocity measurement device sharing one optical fiber loop. The core of the method lies in that the Sagnac effect is sensed using a bi-directional optical carrier microwave resonant cavity, where the optical carrier microwave resonant cavity employs a coupling optoelectronic oscillator to achieve a bi-directional full reciprocal optical fiber path, and non-reciprocity error of the resonant cavity is eliminated effectively. The angular velocity detection method has features of high-precision, easy implementation and low costs.
