Abstract
In conventional quantum nondemolition measurements, the interaction between signal and probe preserves the measured variable. Alternatively, it is possible to restore the original value of the variable by feedback. In this paper, we describe a quantum nondemolition measurement of a quadrature component of the light field using a feedback compensated beam splitter. The noise induced by the vacuum port of the beam splitter is compensated by a linear feedback resulting in an effective amplification of the observed variable. This amplification is then be reversed by optical parametric amplification to restore the original value of the field component.
