Loss Tolerance Simulator
Model per-component optical loss and identify critical thresholds for entanglement preservation
Loss Channel Model
Optical loss is modeled as a beamsplitter mixing with vacuum:
Vlossy = η Videal + (1-η) Vvac
η = 10^(-loss_dB/10) per component
Critical threshold (~0.7 dB/layer):
- Below threshold: Full entanglement preserved
- At threshold: Marginal performance
- Above threshold: Rapid degradation
