20100123901 | Solid State Gyrolaser with Controlled Optical Pumping - The general field of the invention is that of gyrolasers comprising at least one ring-shaped optical cavity comprising at least three mirrors, a solid state amplifying medium pumped by a laser diode whose optical emission power is determined by a current supply source, the cavity and the amplifying medium being such that two so-called contra-rotating optical modes propagate in opposite directions to each other within the said optical cavity, the gyrolaser being a class B gyrolaser, the gyrolaser also comprising means of measuring the difference in optical frequency existing between the two optical modes. The gyrolaser comprises means of measuring the total optical power circulating in the optical cavity and first means of control of the current delivered by the supply source in such a way as to maintain the total optical power substantially constant in a narrow spectral band centred on the relaxation frequency of the laser. | 05-20-2010 |

20110071787 | STABILIZED SOLID-STATE GYROLASER - Solid-state gyrolaser having a device for stabilizing the intensities making it possible to maintain equilibrium of the two counter-propagating modes having at least a means for calculating a rotation measurement (Ω, IΩ) of the gyrolaser on the basis of the counter-propagating modes having a frequency difference (Δνmes) between them, by assuming that the frequency difference (Δνmes) between the two counter-propagating modes is induced only by the rotation of the cavity. The gyrolaser also includes a means for measuring the control command (Co), a means for storing a behaviour model (Mo) of a frequency bias (Δνb) induced by the device for stabilizing the intensities, as a function of the control command, a means for calculating the frequency bias (Δνb) induced by the device for stabilizing the intensities, on the basis of the value of the control command (Co) and the model (Mo), a means for calculating the bias (ΔΩb, ΔIΩb) in the rotation measurement (Ω, IΩ), induced by the frequency bias (Δνb), and a means for compensating for the bias (ΔΩb, ΔIΩb) in the rotation measurement (Ω, IΩ). | 03-24-2011 |
