Gamma-Gamma大气湍流下相干光通信分集接收技术研究

大气湍流引起的光强闪烁使得自由空间光通信(FSO)系统性能恶化,而分集接收技术可有效改善这一影响。为进一步分析分集接收技术对相干接收系统性能的影响,基于二进制相移键控(BPSK)调制和外差相干接收技术,建立了Gamma-Gamma大气湍流信道模型下自由空间光通信分集接收系统模型。在不同大气湍流强度和接收天线数情况下,分别采取最大比合并(MRC)、选择合并(SC)和等增益合并(EGC),分析了对应的系统误码率(BER)和通信中断概率(OP),并与相同接收口径下的传统单天线接收系统的性能进行了比较。结果表明:MRC、EGC分集接收对大气湍流下的相干通信系统性能有明显改善,而SC分集接收仅当平均信噪比低于某一阈值时对相干通信系统的性能有所优化。

通过研究不同大气湍流条件下的系统误码率(BER)来说明大气湍流引起的波前畸变给零差二进制相移键控(BPSK)相干光通信系统带来的恶劣影响。结果显示,大气湍流引起的像差可以独立于系统信噪比(SNR)作用于相干光通信系统,导致误码出现。即使在SNR无限大的情况下,当接收光信号的波面峰谷值(PV)大于一个波长后,就容易出现误码;并且随着SNR的降低,对波面PV的要求更加严格。另外,大气湍流引起的光强起伏和相位畸变会导致相干混频效率急剧下降,从而增加系统误码率。

Protecting Quantum State in Time‐Dependent Decoherence‐Free Subspaces Without the Rotating‐Wave Approximation

In this paper, we propose a scheme to protect quantum state by utilizing the time‐dependent decoherence‐free subspaces (TDFSs) theory without the rotating‐wave approximation (RWA). A coherent control is designed to drive the quantum system into the TDFSs, moreover, the singularities of the designed coherent control can be avoided by appropriately choosing the control parameters. From an experimental view point, the influences of variations of the control parameters and the imperfect initial state are discussed in detail. Numerical simulations confirm that the scheme can protect the quantum information from both the environmental decoherence and the control errors. In addition, by comparing with the scheme employing RWA, we show that the weak coherent control field is not suitable to create the TDFS, the counter‐rotating terms in the strong coherent control are helpful to protect the quantum information.     

Dynamics of coherent and incoherent emission from an artificial atom in a 1D space

We study dynamics of a two-level superconducting quantum system, analogous to a natural atom in an open space, by measuring the evolution of its coherent and incoherent emission. The emitted waves containing full information about the states of the artificial atom are efficiently collected due to strong atom-transmission-line coupling. This allows us to do simultaneous measurements of all the quantum state projections and perform a full characterization of the system. We derive coherence times and extract the two-time correlation function from the dynamics of the coherent emission.     

Phase imaging by the transport equation of intensity

The difference between a well-focused image and a slightly defocused image contains information about the phase of the object. This paper describes how to retrieve this phase information from images, formed by a noncoherent imaging system. Experiments with white light from an extended source are shown. A theoretical explanation for partially coherent illumination is presented.     

Unified approach to quantum capacities: towards quantum noisy coding theorem

Based on a unified approach to all kinds of quantum capacities we show that the rate of quantum information transmission is bounded by the maximal attainable rate of coherent information. Moreover, we show that if for any bipartite state the one-way distillable entanglement is no less than coherent information, then one obtains Shannon-like formulas for all the capacities. The inequality also implies that the decrease of distillable entanglement due to the mixing process does not exceed that of the corresponding loss of information about a system.     

Influence of optical nonlinearity on combining efficiency in ultrashort pulse fiber laser coherent combining system

The influence of optical nonlinearity on combining efficiency in ultrashort pulse fiber laser coherent combining system is investigated theoretically and experimentally. In the theoretical work, a new theoretical algorithm is presented for the coherent combining efficiency, which can be used to quantify the spectral coherence decay induced by optical nonlinearity imbalance between the sub-beams. The spectral information of the sub-beam is obtained by numerically solving the nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) in this algorithm to ensure an accurate prediction. In the experimental work, the coherent combining of two all-fiber picosecond lasers is achieved, and the influence of imbalanced optical nonlinearity on the combining efficiency is studied, which agrees with the theoretical prediction. This paper reveals the physical mechanism for the influence of optical nonlinearity on the combining efficiency, which is valuable for the coherent combining of ultrashort pulse fiber laser beams.     

Suppression of multiplicative disturbance by coherent optical feedback technique

The transfer function of a coherent optical feedback system depends on an adjustable phase. This property is used to produce flexible filters. As an application, suppression of multiplicative noise in object information is shown.     

Enhancing the capability of controlling quantum systems via ancillary systems

This paper explores the potential of controlling quantum systems by introducing ancillary systems and then performing unitary operation on the resulting composite systems. It generalizes the concept of pure state controllability for quantum systems and establishes the link between the operator controllability of the composite system and the generalized pure state controllability of its subsystem. It is constructively demonstrated that if a composite quantum system can be transferred between any pair of orthonormal pure vectors, then its subsystem is generalized pure-state controllable. Furthermore, the unitary operation and the coherent control can be concretely given to transfer the system from an initial state to the target state. Therefore, these properties may be potentially applied in quantum information, such as manipulating multiple quantum bits and creating entangled pure states. A concrete example has been given to illustrate that a maximally entangled pure state of a quantum system can be generated by introducing an ancillary system and performing open-loop coherent control on the resulting composite system.     

Synthesis of spatial coherence

The mutual intensity function plays a major role in characterizing quasi-monochromatic, partially coherent optical signals. We propose to use the mutual intensity as a carrier of information to avoid speckle noise in coherent illumination systems and to permit the use of complex functions that are prohibited spatially incoherent sources. To do this we require methods for encoding the information as a coherence function. An optical system for synthesizing a beam with a given mutual intensity function is proposed. The optical system permits the synthesis of any desired mutual intensity function. The illumination is supplied by a quasi-monochromatic, spatially incoherent source. Experimental results demonstrate the performance of this system for several cases.

Benefits from a speckle noise family on a coherent imaging transmission

We analyze image transmission in a coherent imaging system, in the presence of speckle noise modeled with the family of Gamma probability density functions of varying order. It is demonstrated that speckle noise can improve the transmission of a coherent image. Exact analytical expressions are obtained for both the best achievable performance and the optimal amount of speckle noise maximizing the transmission efficacy. These expressions allow us to analyze and control the conditions under which the coherent imaging system can take advantage of the speckle noise. The influence of the contrast in the coherent image, and of the order of the Gamma probability density describing the statistical fluctuations of the speckle, are given special attention. These results make a contribution to the understanding of the mechanisms of improvement by noise in nonlinear information processing.
