The semi-soft threshold wavelet package filtering method is applied in the filtering of the FOG output signal. Experiments of the stationary and dynamic FOG output signals filtered with the wavelet package analysis are carried out in a lab environment, respectively. Experiments done with the real-time measured FOG signal show that the method of semi-soft threshold wavelet package filtering reduces the mean square error from 5 (°)/h to 1 (°)/h, so it is effective in eliminating the white noises and the fractal noises existing in the FOG. The novel method proposed here is proved valid in reducing the FOG drift error, satisfying the technical demands of high precision and realtime processing.展开更多

This model takes into account the mechanisms of cross relaxation and energy transfer to describe the laser operation. A subroutine program for calculating the absorption rate of cladding pumped scheme is included in the model. The losses of signal and pump light along the fiber have been taken into account. The test of cladding pumped scheme program shows good agreement with the experimental result. The experimental results of core pumping Tm Ho doped fiber laser in fluoride host are compared with the present model, and shows a good agreement with calculations. This model also provides data of the optimum parameters for the configuration of the efficient cladding pumped Tm Ho fluoride laser systems.展开更多
