The Planck Low Frequency Instrument will recover polarization by differencing the outputs from radiometers sensitive to orthogonal polarizations. We contrast the systematic errors that afflict such a system with those that affect correlation polarimeters; the Planck design has some important advantages when measuring very weak signals such as the CMB. We also review systematic effects arising from the choice of scan strategy for all-sky mapping missions like Planck.[For the Planck-LFI consortium].
