Research abstract
In this SBIR program, AdvR is developing a new feature in Y-branch dual phase modulator IOCs which enables fine tuning of the split ratio after assembly. The proposed approach utilizes existing technology with a long flight heritage in tactical gyroscopes to create a tunable section which is localized, finely adjustable and permanent after tuning. Preliminary modeling and feasibility experiments indicate the target performance is achievable. This phase II will validate the approach by establishing that the integrity of the IOC’s intrinsic performance characteristics is not altered after balancing.
