Well-defined and stable quantum networks are essential to realize functional quantum communication applications. In particular, the quantum states must be precisely controlled to produce meaningful results. To counteract the unstable phase shifts in photonic systems, we apply local Bell state measurements to calibrate a non-local quantum channel. The calibration procedure is tested by applying a time encoded quantum key distribution procedure using entangled photons.
