Quantum Illumination with Gaussian States

TLDR
By making the optimum joint measurement on the light received from the target region together with the retained spontaneous parametric down-conversion idler beam, the quantum-illumination system realizes a 6 dB advantage in the error-probability exponent over the optimum reception coherent-state system.
Abstract
An optical transmitter irradiates a target region containing a bright thermal-noise bath in which a low-reflectivity object might be embedded. The light received from this region is used to decide whether the object is present or absent. The performance achieved using a coherent-state transmitter is compared with that of a quantum-illumination transmitter, i.e., one that employs the signal beam obtained from spontaneous parametric down-conversion. By making the optimum joint measurement on the light received from the target region together with the retained spontaneous parametric down-conversion idler beam, the quantum-illumination system realizes a 6 dB advantage in the error-probability exponent over the optimum reception coherent-state system. This advantage accrues despite there being no entanglement between the light collected from the target region and the retained idler beam.

Error Performance of Amplitude Shift Keying-Type Asymmetric Quantum Communication Systems

Tianchen Wang, +1 more
- 01 May 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this article , an amplitude shift keying-type asymmetric quantum communication (AQC) system that uses an entangled state was proposed and evaluated and considered the communication performance of the proposed receiver when applied to the AQC system using a two-mode squeezed vacuum state (TSVS), the maximum quasi-Bell state, and the non-maximum quasibell state.

Classification of quantum correlation using deep learning.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper designed a convolutional neural network to learn and classify the correlated photons efficiently with only 0.1 signal photons per pixel, while the deep learning method has a strong robustness of such task with the accuracy of 99.99%.
