We report on the experimental distillation of a continuous variable polarization entangled state which is affected by a fading channel. We produce a polarization entangled state by mixing two fiber-based polarization squeezing states at a beam splitter [1]. After the beam splitter, one part of the entangled beams is subject to a fading channel. Such channel may exhibit any kind of random distribution of the attenuation. In the experiment, to simulate the fading channel and implement the distillation, we insert a variable optical attenuator into one of the entangled beams and tap off a small portion of the attenuated beam for post selection [2], the joint measurement on the corrupted entangled beams is also made for verification. Then by setting various different attenuation levels, we achieve a series of data from tap measurements and verification measurements which are collected by A/D card into computer. Later, all the measured data can be mixed in the computer with certain distribution form and a destroyed entangled state after a certain fading channel is simulated. Based on such procedure, the distillation can be succeeded and a recovery of the original entangled state is obtained with an accessible success probability.
