This four-year PhD project in advanced signalling and detection in quantum communications explores how quantum communication systems can remain effective when quantum states and communication channels are uncertain. The research will design and optimise resilient quantum signalling constellations for conveying classical information. In particular, the project will investigate constellation designs that maximise minimum trace distance and uniform Holevo-x information, addressing the limits impose...
