Measurement of changes of polarization of optical beam affected by atmospherically effects

In this article the composite author dealt with measurement possibilities of polarization states of light source emitting 1550 nm which was affected by atmospherically transmission environment in special acrylate box 2.5 m long. The Polarimeter Thorlabs TXP 5004 and the External Sensor Head PAN5710IR3 measured the changes of polarization parameters, ellipticity and azimuth, defining placement on the Poincaré sphere for the light source emitting 1550 nm with marking ML925B45F. The statistical analysis was done from these parameters and by the help of testing of hypotheses was set, whether the difference between reference environment without turbulences and affecting of atmospherically effects is statistically significant.
