Analysis on Practical Photon Counting Receiver in Optical Scattering Communication
We consider the practical photon-counting receiver in optical scattering communication. In the receiver side, the detected signal can be characterized as discrete photoelectrons, a series of pulses is generated by photon-multiplier (PMT) detector, held by the pulse-holding circuits, sampled in analog-to-digit convertor (ADC) and then be counted by a rising-edge pulse detector. However, the puls...
متن کاملOptical encryption using photon-counting polarimetric imaging.
We present a polarimetric-based optical encoder for image encryption and verification. A system for generating random polarized vector keys based on a Mach-Zehnder configuration combined with translucent liquid crystal displays in each path of the interferometer is developed. Polarization information of the encrypted signal is retrieved by taking advantage of the information provided by the Sto...
متن کاملLimits of the time-multiplexed photon-counting method
The progress in building large quantum states and networks requires sophisticated detection techniques to verify the desired operation. To achieve this aim, a costand resource-efficient detection method is the time multiplexing of photonic states. This design is assumed to be efficiently scalable; however, it is restricted by inevitable losses and limited detection efficiencies. Here, we invest...
متن کاملExploring the Practical Limits of Optical Flow
This report documents our experience with different optical flow estimation methods and our attempt to use optical flow both qualitatively and quantitatively. Special attention is devoted to improving the Lucas-Kanade method to obtain dense flow. We use a simple clustering technique to find looming objects. This method has the potential of supporting obstacle avoidance using optical flow. Exper...
