Implementation Details
The state of polarization (SOP) of the CW Laser model is defined by using the polarization ellipse as shown in Fig. 1, where the angle ω is the ellipticity angle and α is the azimuth, b and a are the minor and major axis of the ellipse, respectively. Then the unified Stokes Parameters are defined by Equation. 1.
