Table 1 Summary of polarization compensation methods for quantum networks

From: A study of polarization compensation for quantum networks

  1. *Estimated including 3.35% (average of measured QBERs during calibration measurements) net QBER contribution (i.e. 93.3% entanglement fidelity contribution) from entangled photon pair source, user modules, timing jitter, detectors and polarization compensation.
  2. The actual experimentally measured value depends on the properties of the network link and thus there is a nearly uniform spread of QBER values between the extremes quoted
