Multispectral Stokes Imaging Polarimetry Based on Color CCD

In this paper, we propose a method for multispectral imaging polarimetry based on a color charge-coupled device (CCD), which can simultaneously measure the Stokes vectors at three wavelengths without significantly increasing the complexity of the system and the procedure for the polarimetry. We perform the experiment of imaging polarimetry at three wavelengths and the experiment of target classification based on multispectral imaging polarimetry. The experiment results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method, as well as the superiority of this method in target classification and detection.
