Among them, the fiber optic gyroscope optical module is the main sensing device for the rotation of the fiber optic gyroscope sensitive carrier, and it is a closed loop formed by the fiber coil and the MIOC. In the case of higher and higher precision requirements, ambient temperature, magnetic field interference and pressure changes will all affect the fiber optic coil, resulting in measurement errors of the fiber optic gyroscope, among which the polarization error is the main error. In the polarization-maintaining fiber optic gyroscope, the traditional method is to splicing the two pigtails of the MIOC to the fiber coil, and the splicing is not ideal as the main polarization cross-coupling point, which leads to large polarization errors. In addition, the welding point is easily affected by external temperature and stress, which will affect the vibration performance and reliability of the gyro. Therefore, it is one of the key technologies of high-precision fiber optic gyroscopes to directly couple the polarization-maintaining fiber coil with the MIOC to form a sensitive coil without the pigtail fusion method.
Direct coupling can reduce two fusion splices, avoid the polarization cross-coupling and backscattecoil and other noise effects introduced by fusion splices, which is beneficial to reduce polarization noise, improve the zero bias stability and repeatability of the fiber optic gyroscope, and reduce the dead zone. , to improve system reliability as a whole. At the same time, it is also beneficial to realize the four-level symmetrical winding method and improve the vibration and temperature performance of the system. Therefore, the direct coupling technology applied to the sensitive coil components is of great significance to the performance improvement and production of fiber optic gyroscopes. It is the first step of direct coupling technology to integrate the optical fiber coil and the MIOC to form a sensitive coil; encapsulating the coupled sensitive coil as a whole is the key guarantee for realizing the coupling technology.

The high-precision performance requirements are achieved, and the design considers the integrated unitization of the fiber coil and the MIOC, anti-vibration, air tightness, electromagnetic shielding, and heat insulation functions.
