Abstract

See full text

Two Sagnac interferometers are mounted on board a ship with their axes in a horizontal plane. The axis of one interferometer is aligned in a fore-aft direction whereas the axis of the other interferometer is aligned athwartship. The output signals of the two interferometers are combined mathematically so as to cancel the effects of the ship's latitude and thus provide an output signal independent of this parameter.
