The invention discloses a centrally controlled time division multiplexing wireless communication micro base station network. The conventional wireless technology can only provide a narrow-band service because of the limitation of bandwidth and quality. The wireless bandwidth can be promoted only by three methods, namely increasing a used frequency range, improving the frequency spectrum efficiency and increasing a frequency spectrum multiplexing rate. But both the two methods, namely increasing the used frequency range and improving the efficiency, have impassable theoretical boundary, and only the method for increasing the frequency spectrum multiplexing rate has potential of being partially increased by over ten thousand times. Therefore, the method for increasing the frequency spectrummultiplexing rate becomes an optimal way for meeting the future application of the wireless broadband. The centrally controlled time division multiplexing wireless communication micro base station network solves a series of problems caused by the high-density micro base station network architecture. The main properties of the centrally controlled time division multiplexing wireless communication micro base station network greatly surpass the conventional mobile communication technology and the quality and capacity of the wireless network are promoted to a level approximate to the wired network for the first time.

The present invention introduces a detector that is able to detect single microwave photons propagating in a waveguide. The waveguide of the invention is lowered to a temperature where it becomes superconductive. Disposed between a middle wire and a ground plane of the waveguide is a very small piece of a desired normal metal, whereby so-called SN contacts are formed between these materials. A separate reflection measurement circuit is coupled to the normal metal piece. When the impedance of the waveguide is matched to the impedance of the normal metal piece as well as possible, a photon propagating in the waveguide is most likely absorbed in the normal metal. The absorption slightly raises the temperature of the piece, which further changes the impedance observed in a so-called SIN junction between the reflection measurement circuit and the piece. The changed amplitude and phase are detectable at the outlet obtained from a mixer of the reflection measurement circuit, whereby a single absorbed photon can be detected. In principle, the present method and device enable quantum calculation in view of future applications.
