In-Orbit Performance Evaluation of a Spaceborne High Precision Fiber Optic Gyroscope

An in-orbit experiment was launched to evaluate the performance of the spaceborne high precision fiber optic gyroscopes (FOG). The three-axis in-orbit data of the FOG were analyzed using wavelet analysis method. Features of low frequency period terms and glitch noise were demonstrated. In addition, a method to extract the random noise from the in-orbit data is proposed based on the first-order difference method and the Pauta criterion. In addition, the random walk coefficient (RWC) of the FOG was calculated with the Allan variance method. Compared the ground test results, the in-orbit performance evaluation of Spaceborne High Precision Fiber Optic Gyroscope was verified.
