Photon-number resolving detectors are a fundamental building-block of opticalquantum information processing protocols. A loop detector, combined withappropriate statistical processing, can be used to convert a binary on/offphoton counter into a photon-number-resolving detector. Here we describe theidea of a signature of photon-counts, which may be used to more robustlyreconstruct the photon number distribution of a quantum state. The methodologyis applied experimentally in a 9-port loop detector operating at atelecommunications wavelength and compared directly to the approach wherebyonly the number of photon-counts is used to reconstruct the input distribution.The signature approach is shown to be more robust against calibration errors,exhibit reduced statistical uncertainty, and reduced reliance on a-prioriassumptions about the input state.
