The invention relates to the field of performance testing of high-precision
fiber-optic gyroscopes, and discloses an
automatic testing method and
system for the
extinction ratio of a high-precision
fiber-optic
gyroscope, and the method comprises the following steps: constructing a
signal light path and a reference light path, and combining the output light of the
signal light path and the reference light path into a combined
light signal in an orthogonal polarization state; integrally measuring the
extinction ratio of the combined optical
signal by using an
extinction ratio tester to obtain a measured value; the
control unit compares the measured value with a target value of 0dB and generates a control instruction based on a difference value; the
voltage controller automatically adjusts the
voltage of the integrated
optical modulator in the
signal light path according to the instruction, and iterative optimization is carried out through closed-loop feedback until the actually measured
extinction ratio reaches a target value; and finally recording and solidifying the optimal
voltage value. According to the invention, single and accurate
extinction ratio overall measurement is used for replacing two times of error-prone independent
optical power measurement, full-automatic closed-
loop control is realized, the precision, efficiency and consistency of
optical power balance are remarkably improved, and the skill requirements on operators are reduced.
