IEEE 952:1997 (R2008)

New IEEE Standard - Superseded.
Specification and test requirements for a single-axis interferometric fiber optic gyro (IFOG) for use as a sensor in attitude control systems, angular displacement measuring systems, and angular rate measuring systems are defined. A standard specification format guide for the preparation of a single-axis IFOG is provided. A compilation of recommended procedures for testing a fiber optic gyro, derived from those presently used in the industry, is also provided.

This standard defines requirements for a single-axis interferometric fiber optic gyro (IFOG), including any necessary electronics, to be used in [an attitude control system, an angular displacement measuring system, an angular rate measuring system, __________].
