Dissymmetrical 3×3 Coupled Optical Accelerometer

Without adding feedback to modulate light path system, the dissymmetrical 3 × 3 coupled optical accelerometer reduces the complexity of the design of light path system. Experiments prove that it can attain good demodulation effects. As carrier is not needed in this system, the frequency range of input signal is diminished so as to decrease the sampling frequency of accelerometer. This makes for the system on programmable chip（SOPC） design of digital demodulating system. The upper limit of accelerometer working frequency can reach 3 500 Hz. But affected by the inherent frequency of sensitive components, its working frequency is 10 Hz-1 000 Hz, and the sensitivity is 8. 718 0 V/（m @ s^-2）. This accelerometer can detect the dynamic range of acceleration signal real-timely, steadily and accurately, solving the dissymmetrical problem of light path caused by circumstances and the complexity of process.
