Elliptically polarized light is composed of two linearly orthogonally polarized sources with different amplitude and phase difference. You can set up two orthogonal linear polarized sources with desired amplitude and phase from the ellipticity. When the phase is 90deg, it is the amplitude ratio that determines the ellipticity. Please check the definition of ellipticity definition and choose proper amplitudes.
