Abstract

Because many assembly faults, such as the improper layout or the human error-caused problem, cannot be avoided, the optical path of Interferometric Fiber Optic Gyroscope (IFOG) may be damaged. To conquer that problem, the optical path is divided into the front-end optical path, the back-end optical path, and the inner side of fiber optic coil; and three non-destructive testing methods are developed: the laser injection method, the Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) method, and the infrared image analysis method. The support vector machine is utilized to assess the assembly quality. Many practical applications have manifested the effectiveness of proposed method..
