Abstract

We present a quantum receiver for weak signals of the pulse position modulation (PPM) and its modification, multi-pulse PPM, which approaches the Helstrom limit. The adaptive detection strategy is performed by Bayes criterion derived from the records of an on-off single photon detector (SPD).
