Distributed Sensor Networks are often implemented to overcome some of the challenges presented by a single monostatic sensor system. In this paper we consider the possibility of geographically-distributed quantum radar nodes for improved target detection. Our theoretical design assumes N quantum sensor nodes with transmit-detect capabilities. One of these nodes is chosen to an “entangler node”, which generates entangled photon pairs and uses quantum channels to transmit, swap or teleport the photons to nodes A and B. One of the nodes retains the photon as an idler while the other transmits its photon as the signal. When this process is repeated across several nodes, there is a clear advantage of having different bearing angles to the target among the N nodes. Furthermore, the position and orientation of these sensor nodes could be actively optimized to maximize information about the state of the target. In addition, because the photon frequencies can be chosen to be independent of N, the system generates virtual modes that increase the performance of a single quantum sensor. The proposed design could be generalized to maintain the equivalent of a distributed quantum register among the N nodes so that the sharing of classical information from the detection among the nodes can permit state estimation to be performed in a completely uniform and consistent way. More specifically, each node receives a signal photon which is compared to its idler photon to produce something that relates to the state of the target but is completely non-informative to the individual nodes. It is only when the quantum information from the nodes is received at a secure central node that a full estimate comprising all information about the target from all nodes can be constructed. As we will discuss, the system not only is more information-efficient but also provides a certain level of security because any classical information leakage at a node (i.e., compromised by an adversary) will not actually reveal anything about the state of the target. Therefore, a set of geographically distributed quantum sensors can be treated as a single logical quantum radar device.
