Division of the focal plane (DoFP) polarization detector is a pivotal technology in real-time polarization detection. This technology integrates a micropolarization array (MPA) onto the conventional focal plane, introducing a more intricate non-uniformity than traditional focal plane detectors. Current non-uniformity correction algorithms for DoFP are difficult to adapt to changes in integration time and perform poorly in low-polarization scenarios. Analyzing the characteristics of DoFP, formulating a pixel response model, and introducing an adaptive non-uniformity correction algorithm tailored for varying integration time. The DoFP analysis vectors are decomposed into average polarization response and unit analysis vectors for correction separately to improve the performance of the correction algorithm in different polarization scenarios. The performance of modern correction algorithms was tested and evaluated using standard uniform images, and the proposed method outperformed existing algorithms in terms of polarization measurement accuracy under the root mean square error (RMSE) metric. Moreover, in natural scene images, our proposed algorithm shows favorable visual effects and distinguishes itself from its superior stability amid changes in the integration time.
