Abstract

Effects of coherence on imaging systems problem has been discussed previously using many criterions and methods. But they don't consider the polarimetric properties of light. Polarization imaging of an edge object with partially coherent and partially polarized light are investigated and related to the parameters of an imaging system. Theoretical results are presented to describe the imaging parameters and the coherent and polarized field effects. the Fourier transform of the generalized Stokes parameters is discussed by it modulus and phase.
