PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a multi-core transport system for a resonant fiber optic gyroscope.SOLUTION: A transport system 100 has a transport fiber 102 configured to transmit a clockwise signal and a counterclockwise signal and having at least a first core and a second core. The first core and second core are configured such that, when the first core imparts a first effect on the clockwise signal, the second core imparts a second effect on the counterclockwise signal, where the second effect substantially mirrors the first effect. The system further comprises: a first coupler configured to optically couple the clockwise signal to the first core and the counterclockwise signal to the second core; and a second coupler configured to optically couple the clockwise signal from the first core to a resonator 110 and the counterclockwise signal from the second core to the resonator 110. |
