A new spectrum sensing algorithm-degree of polarization (DoP) sensing algorithm is proposed in this paper. By exploiting a pair of dual-polarized antenna at the receiver, DoP of the received vector signal is estimated and utilized to detect the presence of primary users based on the polarization characteristics of electromagnetic waves. The dual-polarized narrowband and broadband systems are both considered for DoP detection. In theoretical analysis, we derive the probability of detection, the probability of false and detection threshold of the proposed algorithm. It is shown that our algorithm overcomes the noise uncertainty problem. Considering the polarization-sensitive channel impairments, the impact of polarization mode dispersion on DoP detector is discussed. This method can be utilized for various signal detection applications without requiring the knowledge of signal, transmission channel, and noise power. In simulations based on wireless microphone signals, by applying polarization information signal carries, DoP achieves a better detection performance than arithmetic-to-geometric mean detector, the maximum-to-minimum ratio eigenvalue detector, and energy detector with noise uncertainty. The simulations based on digital video broadcasting-terrestrial signals are also presented, which may show the detection performance of the proposed method may be affected by polarization mode dispersion.

Field-induced birefringence, also known as cross-polarization wave generation, has played an important role in ultrafast nonlinear optics. In this paper we analyze birefringence induced by relativistic collective motion of electrons driven by a high-intensity laser field. An analytical expression for the phase difference between the parallel and perpendicular polarizations of a weak probe pulse with respect to the polarization of a strong pump pulse as a function of intensity, density, and wavelengths is derived. It is shown that under typical experimental conditions of high-field physics, the effect is well above detection threshold. The analysis is compared with particle-in-cell simulations, and the agreement provides good support for the theory.

CMB (Cosmic Microwave Background) polarization observations test many aspects of cosmological models. Effective pseudoscalar-photon interaction(s) would induce a rotation of linear polarization of electromagnetic wave propagating with cosmological distance in various cosmological models. CMB polarization observations are superb tests of these models and have the potential to discover new fundamental physics. Pseudoscalar-photon interaction is proportional to the gradient of the pseudoscalar field. From phenomenological point of view, this gradient could be neutrino number asymmetry, other density current, or a constant vector. In these situations, Lorentz invariance or CPT may effectively be violated. In this paper, we review these results and anticipate what more precise observations can tell us about fundamental physics, inflation, etc. Better accuracy in CMB polarization observation is expected from PLANCK mission to be launched this year. Dedicated CMB polarization observers like B-Pol mission, CMBpol mission and LiteBIRD mission would probe this fundamental issue more deeply in the future. With these sensitivities, cosmic polarization rotations from effective pseudoscalar-photon interaction, Faraday polarization rotations from primordial and large-scale magnetic field, and tensor modes effects would have chances to be detected and distinguished. The subtracted tensor-mode effects are likely due to primordial gravitational waves. We discuss the direct detectability of these primordial gravitational waves using space GW detectors.

For the purpose of investigating influence of waves on the performance of eliminating glints reflected off wavy sea surface by polarization filtering, we viewed glints twinkled in glitter path using a simultaneous multi-channel polarization camera. By analyzing the recorded data, it is found that the waving of water surface do not make unlimited influence on polarization elimination performance. Then a semi quantitative analysis method is introduced. Combing with simulation results, it is concluded that the influence level of waves on polarization elimination performance is determined by observation geometry primarily and then limited by receiver's field of view. When observation geometry is approach to the Brewster condition closer, polarization filtering will has batter performance which is represented by more decrease of intensity of glints and lower influence level of waves on reducing intensity of glints.

We present three protocols for directly measuring the concurrence of two-photon polarization-entangled states, including pure states and mixed states. Two signal photon pairs in the same polarization-entangled states are needed in each detection round, and the signal photons will pass through polarization-independent beam splitters simultaneously. The concurrence of the photon pairs will be encoded in the total probability of picking up the balanced states in the two output modes of the beam splitter, which can be directly measured by single-photon detectors. The photon detection efficiency can be further enhanced with the help of the weak cross-Kerr nonlinearity, and the signal photons will not be absorbed. The third scheme using the bilateral nondemolition measurements can measure the concurrence of both pure and mixed states with high efficiency and high fidelity and is robust against the copy error of the state to be measured. The sophisticated controlled-NOT operation of the previous schemes is not required here, so our protocols are more feasible within the current experimental technology.

While halide perovskites (HPs) have achieved enormous success in the field of optoelectronic applications, much attention has been recently drawn to the unique polarization sensitivity of HPs, either intrinsic or extrinsic, which makes HPs a potential candidate for innovative applications in directly polarized luminescence and detection. Herein, the research status in the field of polarization-sensitive HPs, including linear polarization and circular polarization, is comprehensively summarized. To evaluate the effectiveness of HPs in generating and detecting linearly or circularly polarized light, the principles and characterization methods of polarized luminescence and detection are introduced. Sequentially, the state-of-the-art development of the strategies that induce the linear or circular polarization characteristics of HPs is systematically reviewed, based on which the application of polarization-sensitive HPs in the field of polarization luminescence and detection are summarized. Moreover, the current challenges and opportunities are discussed, and prospects of the future development in this promising field are outlined.

At present, polarization imaging detection experiments of underwater objects mainly focus on the degree of polarization but lack of Stokes vector imaging effect of each element. Based on the principle that the polarization characteristics of different materials are different, the experiment of underwater target detection by laser pulse polarization is carried out in this paper, and the influence of different depths of an underwater object and material factors on polarization imaging detection is studied. The results show that in air, the average degree of polarization of iron sheet is 0.56, that of ceramic tile is 1.00, and that of plastic is 0.48. In water, the average degree of polarization of iron sheet is 0.3625 at 7.5 m, the average degree of polarization of ceramic tile at 7.5 m is 0.359, and that of plastic at 7.5 m is 0.3805. The medium will change the degree of polarization of the measured object. The targets made of different materials have different polarization characteristics, and the polarization information is of great value in improving the detection performance of man-made targets. Polarization detection can obtain better information about underwater objects than traditional radiation intensity detection and can effectively suppress the absorption and scattering of light by water.

Cloud detection is the first step in studying the role of polar clouds in the global climate system with satellite data. In this paper, the cloud detection algorithm for the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MODIS) is evaluated with model simulations and satellite data collocated with radar/lidar observations at three Arctic and Antarctic stations. Results show that the current MODIS cloud mask algorithm performs well in polar regions during the day but does not detect more than 40% of the cloud cover over the validation sights at night. Two new cloud tests utilizing the 7.2 μm water vapor and 14.2 μm carbon dioxide bands, one new clear-sky test using the 7.2μm band, and changes to the thresholds of several other tests are described. With the new cloud detection procedure, the misidentification of cloud as clear decreases from 44.2% to 16.3% at the two Arctic stations, and from 19.8% to 2.7% at the Antarctic station.
