Abstract :
This paper introduces a novel state of polarization (SOP) finding system which results in dramatically decreased processing time of less than several microseconds. The new system employs a simple and fast calibration scheme so that the measured SOP of light is always correct under any circumstances like temperature change, mechanical stress, or input wavelength change
