Abstract :
The authors propose and demonstrate feedback insensitive operation of a fibre amplifier/source (FAS) in a gyroscope by lasing the FAS with fibre gratings. Stable FAS characteristics that are almost independent of the rotation rate are obtained, eliminating most of the gyro output distortion due to the feedback effect
