contents This letter investigates a novel wireless-powered quantum optical communication system, in which a batteryless quantum transmitter harvests energy from a classical radio-frequency source to transmit quantum coherent states. The transmission employs M-ary phase shift keying (M-PSK) modulation over an optical channel impaired by thermal noise, and the fundamental detection performance is evaluated using the Helstrom bound. An optimization framework is proposed that jointly determines the optimal quantum measurement and the energy-harvesting time fraction to maximize the effective rate under a block time constraint. Analytical expressions are derived for special cases, while semidefinite programming techniques are employed for the general M-PSK scenario. Numerical results validate the unimodal nature of the effective rate function and demonstrate the impact of the optimal design parameters.
