Abstract

We model spontaneous Raman scattering noise in polarization-encoded quantum communication channels co-propagating with classical signals using the depolarization channel. Utilizing NetSquid simulations, we validate the model against demonstrations of qubit transmission, entanglement distribution, and teleportation.
