Description
Summary:To solve the problems of channel crosstalk and edge jitter caused by the Fourier transform demodulation of polarimetric-spectral intensity modulation in polarization spectral data, this paper proposes a Four-Channel Polarimetric Spectrometer (FCPS) with two groups of polarimetric-spectral intensity modulation (PSIM). FCPS can demodulate the full Stokes spectra information by system matrix calibration in the spatial domain. The traditional channel filtering method and the FCPS data demodulation method are simulated, and their results are compared. The simulated results show that the FCPS does not have the problem of the edge jitter, and the demodulation accuracy is higher. It is confirmed that the angle error of phase retarders has little influence on the data reconstruction, and the maximum allowable angle error of the calibration light linear polarizer cannot exceed 0.4°.
