A free‐space experimental set‐up for measuring the quadrature components of weak‐coherent‐state laser signals, based on a homodyne Costas loop configuration is presented. Loop parameters are optimized as a trade‐off between quantum and phase noises. Using binary phase‐shift‐keying modulation, measurements on the mutual information are presented for different photon numbers and phase errors. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
