Simulation of conditional master equations is important to describe systems under continuous measurement and for the design of control strategies in quantum systems. For large bosonic systems, such as BEC and atom lasers, full quantum field simulations must rely on scalable stochastic methods whose convergence time is restricted by the use of representations based on coherent states. Here we show that typical measurements on atom-optical systems have a common form that allows for an efficient simulation using the number-phase Wigner (NPW) phase-space representation. We demonstrate that a stochastic method based on the NPW can converge over an order of magnitude longer and more precisely than its coherent equivalent. This opens the possibility of realistic simulations of controlled multi-mode quantum systems.
