The dimension of a multi-qubit system increases exponentially with the qubit number, which usually leads to daunting computational complexity for general Hamiltonian identification algorithms. In this paper, we design an efficient quantum Hamiltonian identification method based on periodical sampling. The computational complexity is O(M2 + MN2), where M is the number of unknown parameters to be identified in the Hamiltonian and N is the length of the sampling data. Numerical results with different data lengths demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed identification algorithm.AFOSR under grant FA2386-16-1-4065 and the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant Nos. 61174086 and 61533012application/pdfen-AU© 2017, IFAC (International Federation of Automatic Control) Hosting by Elsevier Ltd.Quantum systemsHamiltonian identificationsampling data201710.1016/j.ifacol.2017.08.19492020-11-23
