Abstract
In this article, we take partially coherent electromagnetic Gaussian-Schell model (EGSM) beam as a research object. Based on the unified theory of coherence and polarization and the generalized Stokes parameters of random electromagnetic beams, the expressions of degree of polarization (DoP) and orientation angle of EGSM beam that propagates in the slant atmospheric turbulence, are derived. And the expressions are used to investigate the difference in polarization property of EGSM beam between propagating along an uplink path and a downlink path in the atmospheric turbulence. The results show that under the same conditions, the DoP distribution of EGSM beam propagating along a downlink path is more concentrated than that along an uplink path. When EGSM beam propagates along a downlink path, the maximum DoP corresponding to the propagation distance is larger than along an uplink. Therefore, when EGSM beam propagates along a downlink path, the detector can receive beam information at the longer distances.
