  Detecting B-mode polarization anisotropies on large angular scales in the CMB
polarization pattern is one of the major challenges in modern observational
cosmology since it would give us an important evidence in favor of the
inflationary paradigm and would shed light on the physics of the very early
Universe. Multi-frequency observations are required to disentangle the very
weak CMB signal from diffuse polarized foregrounds originating by radiative
processes in our galaxy. The "Large Scale Polarization Explorer" (LSPE) is an
experiment that aims to constrain the ratio between the amplitudes of tensor
and scalar modes and to study the polarized emission of the Milky Way. LSPE is
composed of two instruments: SWIPE, a stratospheric balloon operating at 140,
210 and 240 GHz that will fly for two weeks in the Northern Hemisphere during
the polar night of 2021, and STRIP, a ground-based telescope that will start to
take data in early 2021 from the "Observatorio del Teide" in Tenerife observing
the sky at 43 GHz and 95 GHz. In my thesis, I show the results of the
unit-level tests campaign on the STRIP detectors that took place at
"Universit\`a degli Studi di Milano Bicocca" from September 2017 to July 2018,
and I present the code I developed and the simulations I performed to study the
STRIP scanning strategy. During the unit-level tests, more than 800 tests on 68
polarimeters have been performed in order to select the 55 with the best
performance in terms of central frequencies, bandwidths, noise temperatures,
white noise levels, slopes and knee frequencies. The STRIP scanning strategy is
based on spinning the telescope around the azimuth axis with constant elevation
in order to overlap the SWIPE coverage maintaining a sensitivity of 1.6 {\mu}K
(on average) per sky pixels of 1{\deg}. Individual sources will be periodically
observed both for calibration and study purposes.
