Abstract
Measurement error can be evaluated using the concepts introduced by Ozawa in 2003. Importantly, this evaluation takes into account the non-classical effects of quantum correlations. We investigate this effect by using a sequence of non-commuting measurements of photon polarization with a variable measurement resolution for the intermediate measurement. It is shown that quantum correlations between the initial and the final measurement outcomes result in a significant reduction of the measurement errors for the target observable, even though the final measurement is not sensitive to the polarization component of interest.
