Optical Communication Noise Rejection Using Correlated Photons

Instrumentation and Detectors 2015-06-26 v1

Abstract

This paper describes a completely new way to perform noise rejection using a two-photon sensitive detector and taking advantage of the properties of correlated photons to improve an optical communications link in the presence of uncorrelated noise. In particular, a detailed analysis is made of the case where a classical link would be saturated by an intense background, such as when a satellite is in front of the sun,and identifies a regime where the quantum correlating system has superior performance.
