  We experimentally demonstrate quantum teleportation for continuous variables
using squeezed-state entanglement. The teleportation fidelity for a real
experimental system is calculated explicitly, including relevant imperfection
factors such as propagation losses, detection inefficiencies and phase
fluctuations. The inferred fidelity for input coherent states is F = 0.61 +-
0.02, which when corrected for the efficiency of detection by the output
observer, gives a fidelity of 0.62. By contrast, the projected result based on
the independently measured entanglement and efficiencies is 0.69. The
teleportation protocol is explained in detail, including a discussion of
discrepancy between experiment and theory, as well as of the limitations of the
current apparatus.
