Disclosed herein is a Ring Laser Gyroscope Enhanced Resolution System comprising, in a preferred embodiment, a sampling frequency modulation phase-locked loop (or "chirp") which is used in combination with the fast filter. Enhanced resolution is achieved by using the fast filter (preferably a moving average digital filter) to gather optically integrated rate data and accumulate this data. During the data gathering process, the accumulated data is sampled at a rate set by a frequency modulated ("chirper") phase-locked loop in order to remove undesirable data due to aliasing effects upon the digital filter. In this manner, an enhanced resolution of the gyroscope angular measurement is achieved.
