Abstract :
Quantum communication with a nonsymmetrical set of three states is considered. Some results obtained from numerical computation are presented. A model for quantum detection called “near optimum”, similar to the binary case, is studied. Calculations of error probability in detection schemes subject to information criteria are performed and discussed. Further, comparison of the error probability in detection between these different schemes is analyzed
