    Summary

    Quantum radar (QI) shows promise, but practical challenges remain. This study proves that quantum-limited amplifiers weaken QI radar

    Area of Science:

    • Quantum optics
    • Radar technology
    • Quantum information science

    Background:

    • Quantum illumination (QI) protocols have enabled quantum radar prototypes with demonstrated quantum enhancement.
    • Practical QI radar application faces challenges, including the detection range versus quantum enhancement trade-off and optimized receiver design.
    • Quantum-limited amplifiers have been proposed as solutions to enhance QI radar performance.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To establish a universal method for evaluating the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of QI radar.
    • To connect QI radar theory with classical radar signal processing for performance evaluation.
    • To analyze the impact of quantum-limited amplification schemes on QI radar performance.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a novel SNR evaluation method for QI radar.

  • Integration of classical radar signal processing principles into QI radar analysis.
  • Theoretical analysis of phase-insensitive and phase-sensitive amplification schemes in QI radar.

    • Main Results:

    • The proposed method effectively evaluates QI radar performance from a radar perspective.
    • Any quantum-limited phase-insensitive amplification scheme significantly diminishes the quantum enhancement of QI radar.
    • QI radar utilizing phase-sensitive amplified idlers offers no advantage over optimal classical illumination.

    Conclusions:

    • Quantum-limited phase-insensitive amplification is detrimental to QI radar's quantum advantage.
    • Phase-sensitive amplification in QI radar does not outperform classical radar.
    • The developed evaluation method aids in identifying and avoiding suboptimal QI radar designs, guiding future research and application development.
