Abstract
A critical analysis of optical resonator gyro sensors (Ring Laser Gyro “RLG” and Passive Optical Gyro ‘TOG”) is undertaken. In addition, the resonator of the Passive Optical Gyro is analyzed for two coupled orthogonal polarizations by use of the Jones matrix. In particular, the dependence of the resonator's response upon its constituent component parameters is investigated with a view to the design of POG's with rotational sensitivities on the order of 0.01 degrees/hour.
