Every practical quantum channel degrades the quality of quantum states transmitted between two parties. In order to establish a communication with a low error rate, it is therefore important to determine and if possible to decrease the influence of noise in the quantum channel.

We investigate an optical quantum channel with non-Gaussian noise characteristics transforming a signal state into a statistical mixture of signal and vacuum. The task of the distillation process is to recover the pure signal state. A possible application of this device is a quantum relay.

In this contribution we compare the distillation performance of single photon detection and homodyne measurement. After coherent signal states have passed through a noisy channel, a part of the beam is tapped off and measured in the distillation device. The information obtained hereby is used to condition further measurements of the signal.
