摘要
We present an exact expression for the joint count probability in an eight-port homodyne detector used in a recent proposal for a phase measurement by Noh et al. For a strong local oscillator we relate this joint count probability to the Q-function of the arbitrary input state. This Q-function integrated over radius is the phase distribution corresponding to the phase operators of Noh et al.
