System and method for partial LCVR Stokes polarimeter thermal drift compensation

In this paper we deal with the problem of thermal drift when using a LCVR (liquid crystal variable retarder) Stokes polarimeter. We address this problem in the restricted case of using a polarimeter to estimate partially linearly polarized light (that corresponds for example to the reflection of...
