Choose an orthonormal basis $\{|j⟩{\}}_{j=1}^d$ of the input space and define operators from the input to the $k$-dimensional outcome register byThese give a Kraus representation:The POVM completeness relation givesTherefore $\Phi$ is a completely positive map and is trace preserving: it is a quantum channel representing a deterministic measurement channel.
