45. We note that the state of a temporal mode at the output of a laser operating far above its threshold is described as a Poisson-distributed, mixed photon number state. This description is further reinforced in our experiment by the use of photodetectors which project (destructively) the state of the temporal modes onto number states. Also, nowhere in our experiment do we determine the phase of the laser, hence a description of the output in terms of, say, coherent states is inappropriate. Thus, the light source in our experiment closely approximates a single photon source, albeit with the photons arriving at random times.
46. 1 may not give the maximum E for any transmission rate. Nevertheless, it gives almost maximum E, especially in the region of high transmission rate, since the capacity is the maximum transmission rate giving a non-negative E. Therefore, the discussions on the advantage of the QCHC is valid. To find the optimal measurement which maximizes E is still an open problem.
