• Title: Ultimate capacity limit of a multi-span link with phase-insensitive amplification
• Authors: Marcin Jarzyna and Raul Garcia-Patron and Konrad Banaszek
• Abstract summary: The Shannon capacity of a point-to-point link with an optimised configuration of optical amplifiers is compared with general detection strategies permitted by quantum mechanics. Results suggest that the primary application area of receivers based on such strategies may be unamplified short-distance links or free-space optical communication.

  Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging has attracted increasing attention due to its potential applications. Existing NLOS reconstruction approaches are constrained by the reliance on empirical physical priors. We introduce a novel learning-based solution, comprising two key designs: Learnable Path Compensation (LPC) and Adaptive Phasor Field (APF)

  We propose a quantum illumination network to overcome the limitations, via designing a transmitter array and a single receiver antenna. Thanks to multiple transmitters, quantum advantage is achieved even with a high total transmitted power. We generalize the parameter estimation scenario to a general hypothesis testing scenario, where the six-decibel quantum illumination advantage is achieved at a much greater total probing power.

  We address a key distribution protocol over a multispan link employing either phase-insensitive or phase-sensitive amplifiers. We perform the security analysis under both unconditional and composable security frameworks. We compare the resulting key generation rate for both kinds of amplified links with the no-amplifier protocol, identifying the enhancement introduced by optical amplification.

  Low-noise microwave amplification is crucial for detecting weak signals in quantum technologies and radio astronomy. Current amplifiers do not satisfy all these requirements, severely limiting the scalability of superconducting quantum devices. Here, we demonstrate the feasibility of building a near-ideal quantum amplifier using a homogeneous Josephson junction array and the non-trivial topology of its dynamics.
