  Abstract:
In the experimental verification of Bell's inequalities in real photonic experiments, it is generally believed that the so-called fair sampling assumption (which means that a small fraction of results provide a fair statistical sample) has an unavoidable role. Here, we want to show that the interpretation of these experiments could be feasible independent of the fair sampling assumption. For this purpose, we derive an efficient Bell-type inequality which is a CHSH-type inequality in real experiments using some alternative assumptions other than the fair sampling. Furthermore, Quantum mechanics violates our proposed inequality, independent of the detection-efficiency problems.
