Bounding the quantum limits of precision for phase estimation with loss and thermal noise
We consider the problem of estimating an unknown but constant carrier phase modulation theta using a general, possibly entangled, n-mode optical probe through n independent and identical uses of a lossy bosonic channel with additive thermal noise. We find an upper bound to the quantum Fisher informa...
