Statistics of normalized Stokes polarization parameters
Applied Optics, 2018The normalized Stokes parameters are formed from the ratio of the polarization components to the intensity component of light. Such ratio distributions are known to have an undefined mean and variance, and yet researchers in the polarization community work with these normalized parameters all the time.

Generalized Stokes parameters in phase space
Optics Letters, 2010The generalized Stokes parameters (GSP) are studied under the theory of phase space. It is noted that phase-space Stokes parameters can be a useful tool for Wigner distribution function measurements. Electromagnetic Wigner functions are introduced by use of the two-point statistics of GSP.

Dual-Polarized SAR and Stokes Parameters
IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Letters, 2006For a given transmission polarization, the four-element Stokes vector captures all of the information inherent to the dual-polarized backscattered signals. Stokes parameters are linear combinations of the like-polarized power, the cross-polarized power, and the cross product between the complex image amplitudes in the two receive channels.

Classical-Quantum Signaling via Stokes Parameters
GLOBECOM 2024 - 2024 IEEE Global Communications ConferenceCatering for the emerging satellite-based free-space optical (FSO) communication networks, exploiting polarization encoding via Stokes operators, we propose a novel simultaneous quantum-classical communications (SQCC) protocol that enables the coexistence of secured quantum communications and high-throughput classical communications under minimal ...

Stokes parameters and Stokes operators
2016It is shown that the description of polarization based on quantization of classical Stokes parameters is incomplete in quantum domain. For example, the polarization of the electric dipole radiation of the atomic or molecular transitions is described by nine generators of the SU(3) subalgebra in the Weyl-Heisenberg algebra of photons, in other words, by

Measuring the Stokes polarization parameters
American Journal of Physics, 2007The Stokes formulation for representing polarized light is discussed along with the classical measurement method for determining the Stokes polarization parameters. The limitations of this method are noted, and we consider the rotating quarter-waveplate method, which avoids the limitations of the classical method and allows a curve fitting algorithm to

On entanglement of light and Stokes parameters
Physica Scripta, 2016We present a new approach to Stokes parameters, which enables one to see better non-classical properties of bright quantum light, and of undefined overall photon numbers. The crucial difference is as follows. The standard quantum optical Stokes parameters are averages of differences of intensities of light registered at the two exits of polarization ...

The Stokes Parameters Representation
20116.1 Introduction In Chapter 5, we examined the Jones vector representation of polarized light, which is quite simple and straightforward. This representation, however, can describe only polarized light. In this chapter, we discuss a more versatile representation of the polarization state of any light wave (completely polarized, unpolarized, or ...

Measuring the Stokes Polarization Parameters
2017The polarization properties of scattered light from turbid media such as biological tissues, human or animal muscle, and certain plastics have received considerable attention due to their potential for use in inspection or diagnostic detection applications. The polarized light state is represented by Stokes parameters and several methods.

Evolution of the Stokes parameters in optically anisotropic media
Optics Letters, 1995The evolution of the Stokes parameters in optically anisotropic media is characterized by a set of coupled nonlinear first-order differential equations. The incident quasi-monochromatic plane-wave field is assumed to be statistically stationary and of arbitrary state of polarization.
