Entangled particles exhibit quantum correlations over arbitrary long distances in time and space which cannot be mimicked by local realistic models. In order to detect and utilize these correlations for quantum information tasks, measurements in different bases are necessary. Schemes for experimentally characterizing quantum states have been devised, which are often experimentally demanding in terms of stability and insensitivity against noise. We show that entanglement detection is possible even under uncontrolled, unknown, local environmental noise on the quantum channel - a scenario under which established entanglement witnesses and tomography schemes fail - and demonstrate our new practical method by determining the degree of entanglement and purity of an unknown state using photonic multi-qubit states.
