Abstract

Quantum teleportation is a fundamental protocol in quantum information science, whose performance is conventionally evaluated under the assumption of ideal Bell-state measurements. In realistic implementations, however, joint measurements are often imperfect and can deviate from maximally entangled bases due to coherent errors in entangling operations. In this work, we analytically show how the entanglement of joint measurements determines teleportation performance and propose a strategy to overcome the limitations imposed by partially entangled joint measurements to recover the unit teleportation fidelity with a nonzero success probability. This is achieved by optimizing a reversing operation on the teleported state to compensate for the known coherent deformation of the Bell-state measurement. We then derive an exact equation revealing a quantitative relation between measurement entanglement, channel entanglement, and the success probability to realize the unit-fidelity two-qubit teleportation. We illustrate our results using elegant joint measurements and realistic coherent error models arising from imperfect entangling operations in quantum systems. Our work provides fundamental insight into the role of measurement entanglement in quantum teleportation and establishes offers a practical framework for achieving faithful teleportation without requiring substantial modifications to existing hardware.
