    摘要: A method and apparatus for authenticating a radar return signal include: generating an outgoing radar beam; generating a pair of entangled photons comprising a signal photon and an idler photon; combining the signal photon with the outgoing radar beam to generate a combined beam; sending the combined beam towards a target; receiving a return beam; detecting the signal photon from the return beam by a quantum illumination receiver; and making a joint detection with the idler signal.

    摘要: A method for range finding of a target including: generating a first photon and a second photon identical to the first photon; transmitting the first photon towards the target and delaying the second photon by a time delay; receiving the first photon reflected from the target and the delayed second photon; interacting the reflected first photon and the delayed second photon to produce HOM interference; detecting photo-statistics at an output of the HOM interference; when the two photons are output at the same output port, repeating the above processes; when the reflected first single photon and the delayed second single photon are output at different output ports, changing the time delay and repeating the above processes; repeating the above processes for a number of times to arrive at a final estimate for a value of the time delay corresponding to the final estimate of the target range.
