Description
Polar code adapted to transmit classical information over channels with classical inputs and quantum outputs.
Rate
Codes achieve the symmetric Holevo information for sending classical information over any quantum channel.
Decoding
Quantum-limited successive-cancellation (SC) joint-detection receiver [1].

- Polar code — Quantum-classical polar codes generalize polar codes for transmission through channels with quantum output.
- Binary PSK (BPSK) code — BPSK concatenated with quantum-classical polar codes achieves the Holevo capacity for the AD channel [3].
