A fiber-optic attitude and heading reference system (AHRS) (gyro bias repeatability ≤50μg) with fast startup, RS-422/Ethernet output and extended-temperature operation, suited to demanding navigation and stabilization applications.
The Merak-H03(60S) Fiber Optic AHRS is a fiber-optic attitude and heading reference system (AHRS) from the Merak civil AHRS series. It combines a high-precision fiber optic gyroscope triad with quartz flexible accelerometers in a strapdown architecture, and outputs attitude, heading and inertial data over serial and Ethernet interfaces. The unit delivers a dynamic range of at least ±400°/s with excellent bias stability and low angular random walk. Key performance figures include Accelerometer Bias Repeatability (monthly, 1σ) ≤50μg; Accelerometer Scale Factor Accuracy (monthly, 1σ) ≤50ppm; Gyro Bias Repeatability (1σ) ≤0.05°/hr; Gyro Scale Factor Accuracy (1σ) ≤50ppm; Gyro Accuracy (10 s, 1σ) ≤0.1°/hr; Angular Random Walk (1σ) ≤0.01°/√hr. A companion “Deep Pilot” variant (SD-GZ03) with the same specifications is also available. Electrical interfacing is provided through high-speed serial or Ethernet links with fast startup, and the unit operates over an extended industrial temperature range with high MTBF for long-endurance missions. Typical applications include guns, lasers, sonars, cannons and other military equipment platforms, as well as unmanned surface vessels and industrial attitude-measurement systems that require a continuous, GPS-independent attitude reference. All specifications below are taken directly from the manufacturer’s 2026 catalog and datasheet.
