- Title: Beyond Weak Cramér Rao Bound for Distributed Phases Using Multiphoton Polarization GHZ State: Exact Quantum Fisher Matrix Results
- Authors: Jiaxuan Wang, Girish Agarwal,
- Abstract summary: Previous research has relied on a much weaker Cram'er-Rao bound rather than precise bounds from exact quantum Fisher information matrix.
We derive exact quantum Cram'er-Rao bounds, which we verify are saturated by projective measurements.
This is significant as it paves the way for more precise and efficient distributed sensing.

- Abstract: Quantum-enhanced parameter estimation is critical in various fields, including distributed sensing. In this study, we focus on estimating multiple unknown phases at different spatial nodes using multiphoton polarization-entangled states. Previous research has relied on a much weaker Cram\'er-Rao bound rather than precise bounds from exact quantum Fisher information matrices. We present exact results for the distributed sensing. We find that, due to its singular nature, direct use of the quantum Fisher information matrix is not possible. We analyze the reasons for this singularity, which has prevented the determination of quantum Cram\'er-Rao bounds. We demonstrate that not all phases in distributed sensing with multiphoton entangled states are independent. We obtain non-singular matrices by identifying and removing the redundant phase from the calculation. This allows us to derive exact quantum Cram\'er-Rao bounds, which we verify are saturated by projective measurements. These bounds enable Heisenberg-limited sensing for the average phase. Our analysis is specifically applicable to N-photon GHZ states distributed across multiple nodes. This advancement is significant as it paves the way for more precise and efficient distributed sensing, enhancing the overall capabilities of quantum sensing technologies based on N photon GHZ states.
