Parameter estimation with efficient photodetectors

Abstract

Current parameter estimation techniques rely on photodetectors which have low brightness and thus are based on gathering averaged statistics. Recently it was claimed that perfect photodetction will change the nature of sensing algorithms and will increase sensing efficiency beyond the immediate effect of having larger collection efficiency. In this paper we bring up the observation that perfect photodetection implies Heisenberg scaling(1T) for parameter estimations. We analyze a specific example in detail.
