The Polarization Properties Research of Atmospheric Based on Actual Weather Conditions

Article Preview

Abstract:

A new method to calculate the polarization properties of the atmosphere by combining the Rayleigh scattering and Mie scattering is proposed in this paper. We inversed the values of the required data by experiment and simulated of the atmosphere polarization characteristics under the same conditions. The simulation results show that the proposed method can accurately describe the variation of the atmosphere polarization properties. Besides, the results show such variation: in the same weather conditions, the degree of polarization is gradually increased while scattering angle is gradually increased as 90°; in the same detect conditions, the degree of polarization decreases with the deteriorating weather conditions.
