Abstract
The quantum Cramér–Rao bound (QCRB) provides an ultimate precision limit allowed by quantum mechanics in parameter estimation. Given any quantum state dependent on a single parameter, there is always a positive-operator valued measurement (POVM) saturating the QCRB. However, the QCRB-saturating POVM cannot always be implemented efficiently, especially in multipartite systems. In this paper, we show that the POVM based on local operations and classical communication is QCRB-saturating for arbitrary pure states or rank-two mixed states with varying probability distributions over fixed eigenbasis. Local measurements without classical communication, however, is not QCRB-saturating in general.
