Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of marine fiber optic compass testing technology, specifically relating to a marine fiber optic compass motion simulation testing system. Background Technology

[0002] A fiber optic compass is a strapdown test gyrocompass based on a fiber optic gyroscope. In ship navigation and communication systems, it provides information such as heading angle, heading angular velocity, attitude angle, and heave. Gyrocompasses have evolved from electrically controlled gyrocompasses (Electronic Compass) to three-axis platform compasses, and then to strapdown test compasses. Gyroscopes have evolved from high-speed rotating mechanical gyroscopes to optical gyroscopes without rotating parts. Fiber optic gyroscopes have seen rapid development in the last decade or so due to their relatively lower technological threshold compared to laser gyroscopes. Fiber optic compasses are trending towards replacing traditional Electronic Compass. After research and production, marine fiber optic compasses require simulated ship motion testing before they can be used on board. However, existing simulation testing systems have limited testing steps and require multiple testing systems, resulting in low stability and reliability during testing. Utility Model Content
