Analysis of a Sagnac interferometer with low-birefringence twisted fiber

The fiber Sagnac interferometer of low birefringence and twist is analyzed numerically in the linear region. A novel method for measurement of the birefringence of the fiber and the angle of rotation of the axes inside the fiber loop of the interferometer is also presented.
