Gaussian-state quantum-illumination receivers for target detection

Saikat Guha, Baris I. Erkmen

摘要:

使用自发参数下转换产生的纠缠双光束的信号一半询问被怀疑包含目标的空间区域,并且具有高损耗和高(纠缠破坏)背景噪声。对返回光和保留在发射器处的闲频光束执行联合测量。一个最佳的量子接收器,其实现方式尚不清楚,被证明可以实现6 dB增益的错误概率指数相对于实现与一个单一的相干态(经典)激光发射器和最佳接收器。我们提出了两个结构化的光接收器,实现高达3 dB的增益的误差指数超过与经典的传感器。据我们所知,这些是用于目标检测的量子光学传感器的第一个设计,它可以很容易地在概念验证实验中实现,在低信号亮度,高损耗和高噪声操作制度中明显优于最好的经典传感器。

英文摘要:

The signal half of an entangled twin-beam, generated using spontaneous parametric downconversion, interrogates a region of space that is suspected of containing a target, and has high loss and high (entanglement-breaking) background noise. A joint measurement is performed on the returned light and the idler beam that was retained at the transmitter. An optimal quantum receiver, whose implementation is not yet known, was shown to achieve 6 dB gain in the error-probability exponent relative to that achieved with a single coherent-state (classical) laser transmitter and the optimum receiver. We present two structured optical receivers that achieve up to 3 dB gain in the error exponent over that attained with the classical sensor. These are to our knowledge the first designs of quantum-optical sensors for target detection, which can be readily implemented in a proof-of-concept experiment, that appreciably outperform the best classical sensor in the low-signal-brightness, high-loss and high-noise operating regime.
