Let be a rigorously CPTP decoder on the finite packet output space, and define

Complete to the full packet Fock space by

where projects onto the finite packet occupation space. Then

Proof. Compression by is completely positive. The second term is a positive-effect measurement followed by state preparation. Their traces add to , so the extension is CPTP.

The approximate channel is supported on . Lemma lem:choi gives its decoded error . Postprocessing contraction and Theorem thm:regulator give the additional .
