Secure quantum remote sensing without entanglement

Year: 2023
Type: article
Abstract: Quantum metrology and quantum communications are typically considered as distinct applications in the broader portfolio of quantum technologies. However, there are cases where we might want to combine the two, and recent proposals have shown how this might be achieved in entanglement-based systems. Here, we present an entanglement-free alternative that has advantages in terms of simplicity and practicality, requiring only individual qubits to be transmitted. We demonstrate the performance of the scheme in both the low and high data limits, showing quantum advantages both in terms of measurement precision and security against a range of possible attacks.
