Dataset supporting the University of Southampton Doctoral Thesis "Novel fibres for next-generation fibre optic gyroscopes"

Dataset supporting the University of Southampton Doctoral Thesis "Novel fibres for next-generation fibre optic gyroscopes".

This is an ensemble of all gyro data acquisition runs for the multicore IFOG (MCIFOG ) and the benchmark PM IFOG (Benchmark IFOG) described in the thesis. The conditions for each individual test data run is given in an excel workbook which tabulates all the relevant conditions for the run. The Readme file gives a further description of all the data files.

All data can be processed via the MATLAB scripts contained in the folder "Gyro Data Analysis".
Process data by updating the "main_dir" variable in the main script, "analyze_gyro_data_v8.m", to match the data folder which is to be processed.
The temperature log for a given run can be processed simultaneously by enabling the "use_thermal_data" option.
Descriptions of processing options and other analysis features is given in the comments of the MATLAB code.
A detailed description of the test configuration for each gyro run is given in the excel files:
"MCIFOG 1 Test Log.xlsx" and "PM Gyro Test Log.xlsx"

Some of the data included in this set is given in the following publication:
