Quantum Illumination is the phenomena where defense contractors, scientists, quantum engineers and photonics experts have pondered it as the solution for correction method and for the effects of atmosphere on entanglement, causing atmospheric coupling, bringing the quantum system to its final phase; quantum decoherence.Rather than discard the tactic, large sums of money have been poured into strategies such as improving target detection in an effort to make quantum illumination efforts more efficient, or attempting to achieve quantum illumination using Gaussian states whereby quantum harmonic oscillators adopt states resembling the oscillatory behavior of a classical harmonic oscillator.So far the progress of a deployable quantum radar has not quite been achieved due to this same obstacle, quantum decoherence.This study proposes the solution for developing a military quantum radar whereby quantum decoherence due to quantum illumination to overcome the effects of atmosphere coupling on the quantum radar's quantum entangled photons.
