Description
Coherent-state c-q binary code encoding into two coherent states \(|\pm\alpha\rangle\) for complex \(\alpha\). A shifted version, with codewords \(\{|0\rangle,|\alpha\rangle\}\), is called binary amplitude modulation (BAM), The three-state subcode \(\{|\alpha,\alpha\rangle,|-\alpha,\alpha\rangle,|\alpha,-\alpha\rangle\}\) of two-mode BPSK is called the single-degeneracy code [1].

- Binary PSK (BPSK) code — BPSK (BPSK c-q) codes are used to transmit classical information using antipodal coherent states over classical (quantum) channels.
- Two-component cat code — BPSK c-q (two-component cat) codes are used to transmit classical (quantum) information using (superpositions of) antipodal coherent states over quantum channels.
- On-off keyed (OOK) c-q code — OOK c-q codewords are related to BPSK c-q codewords by a displacement in phase space.
