Which consequence results when an optical isolator malfunctions within a fiber optic gyroscope?

💡 Explanation

The malfunction introduces back-reflection into the laser cavity; therefore, lock-in effect occurs because the Sagnac effect is distorted by back-coupled light. This effect creates a static bias term, rather than impacting signal coherence or bandwidth limits.
