The application of Quantum Teleportation for control of classical dynamic systems and autonomy is proposed in this paper. Quantum teleportation is an intrinsically quantum phenomenon, and was first introduced by teleporting an unknown quantum state via dual classical and Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen channels in 1993. In this paper, we consider the possibility of applying this quantum technique to autonomous mobile classical platforms for control and autonomy purposes for the first time in this research. First, a review of how Quantum Entanglement and Quantum Cryptography can be integrated into macroscopic mechanical systems for controls and autonomy applications is presented, as well as how quantum teleportation concepts may be applied to the classical domain. In quantum teleportation, an entangled pair of photons which are correlated in their polarizations are generated and sent to two autonomous platforms, which we call the Alice Robot and the Bob Robot. Alice has been given a quantum system, i.e. a photon, prepared in an unknown state, in addition to receiving an entangled photon. Alice measures the state of her entangled photon and her unknown state jointly and sends the information through a classical channel to Bob. Although Alice original unknown state is collapsed in the process of measuring the state of the entangled photon (due to the quantum non-cloning phenomenon), Bob can construct an accurate replica of Alice state by applying a unitary operator. This paper, and the previous investigations of the applications of hybrid classical-quantum capabilities in control of dynamical systems, are aimed to promote the adoption of quantum capabilities and its advantages to the classical domain particularly for autonomy and control of autonomous classical systems.

This paper addresses the application of quantum entanglement and cryptography for automation and control of dynamic systems. A dynamic system is a system where the rates of changes of its state variables are not negligible. Quantum entanglement is realized by the Spontaneous Parametric Down-conversion process. Two entangled autonomous systems exhibit correlated behavior without any classical communication in between them due to the quantum entanglement phenomenon. Specifically, the behavior of a system, Bob, at a distance, is correlated with a corresponding system, Alice. In an automation scenario, the “Bob Robot” is entangled with the “Alice Robot” in performing autonomous tasks without any classical connection between them. Quantum cryptography is a capability that allows guaranteed security. Such capabilities can be implemented in control of autonomous mechanical systems where, for instance, an “Alice Autonomous System” can control a “Bob Autonomous System” for applications of automation and robotics. The applications of quantum technologies to mechanical systems, at a scale larger than the atomistic scale, for control and automation, is a novel contribution of this paper. Notably, the feedback control transfer function of an integrated classical dynamic system and a quantum state is proposed.
The intersection of Quantum Technologies and Robotics Autonomy is explored in the present paper. The two areas are brought together in establishing an interdisciplinary interface that contributes to advancing the field of system autonomy, and pushes the engineering boundaries beyond the existing techniques. The present research adopts the experimental aspects of quantum entanglement and quantum cryptography, and integrates these established quantum capabilities into distributed robotic platforms, to explore the possibility of achieving increased autonomy for the control of multi-agent robotic systems engaged in cooperative tasks. Experimental quantum capabilities are realized by producing single photons (using spontaneous parametric down-conversion process), polarization of photons, detecting vertical and horizontal polarizations, and single photon detecting/counting. Specifically, such quantum aspects are implemented on network of classical agents, i.e., classical aerial and ground robots/unmanned systems. With respect to classical systems for robotic applications, leveraging quantum technology is expected to lead to guaranteed security, very fast control and communication, and unparalleled quantum capabilities such as entanglement and quantum superposition that will enable novel applications.

By quantum teleportation an unknown quantum state is destroyed at a sending place while its perfect replica state appears at a remote place via dual quantum and classical channels. Quantum teleportation allows for the transmission of quantum information to a distant location despite the impossibility of measuring or broadcasting the information to be transmitted. e classical teleportation is like a fax in which one could scan an object and send the information so that the object can be reconstructed at the destination. In this conventional facsimile transmission, the original object is scanned to extract partial information about it. e scanned information is then sent to the receiving station, where it is used to produce an approximate copy of the original object. e original object remains intact a er the scanning process. By contrast, in quantum teleportation, the uncertainty principle forbids any scanning process from extracting all the information in a quantum state. e nonlocal property of quantum mechanics enables the striking phenomenon of quantum teleportation. Bennett and coworkers28 showed that a quantum state can be teleported, provided one does not know that state, using a celebrated and paradoxical feature of quantum mechanics known as the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) e ect.11 ey found a way to scan out part of the information from an object A, which one wishes to teleport, while causing the remaining part of the information to pass to an object B, via the EPR e ect. In this process, two objects B and C form an entangled pair; object C is taken to the sending station, while object B is taken to the receiving station. At the sending station, object C is scanned together with the original object A, yielding some information and totally disrupting the state of A and C. e scanned information is sent to the receiving station, where it is used to select one of several treatments to be applied to object B, thereby putting B into an exact replica of the former state of A.
Teleporting a quantum state,the sender Alice disassembles the entire informations into two parts: one purely classical information and the another purely non-classical information,then sends them to the receiver Bob via two different channels.Firstly,sending the purely non-classical part,the EPR pair which consists of two fermions with the spin of 1 2 here plays the key role in the teleportation,one EPR particle is given to Alice,while the other is given to Bob.Alice performs a complete measurement of the von Neumann type on the joint system consisting of the original particle and her EPR particle,this measurement performed in the four eigenstates of the Bell operator leads to collapse the wave packet of the joint wavefunction into the four correlated Bell bases.Through applying the appropriate unitary transformation to the state of his EPR particle Bob can reconstruct a replica of the original state destroyed in Alice's hand.Moreover,this Bell measurement produces two bits of classical information which is sent to Bob,a quantum teleportation is therefore completed.The paper studies the interior relation between EPR pairs of particles and the quantum teleportation.
Abstract In this paper the procedure for automating the photon quantum experiments for mobile robotic applications is presented. Due to the rapid advances of quantum technologies and quantum engineering, the integration of quantum capabilities in robotic and autonomous systems will be inevitable, and therefore the study and investigation of compatibility and adaptability of quantum systems and classical autonomous systems is of great importance. In a quantum-classical hybrid setup, the source of single photon generation is placed on a leader robot which can send correlated single photons to robot followers. In the case of quantum entanglement, spontaneous parametric down-conversion process using nonlinear paired BBO crystals is implemented which sends entangled photons to the single photon counting modules installed on mobile robots. In the case of quantum cryptography, single photons are sent from Alice robot to Bob robot, where Alice has the course of single photon and Bob has a polarizing beamsplitter and two detectors and that can detect the polarization of photons as vertical and horizontal. Bob then can convert the polarizations to a digital signals as zeros and ones and use them as communication information for control purposes through a classical channel. Motorized optics equipment can automatically align the source of photons to detectors on the mobile robots. The automated alignment procedure is one of the key enabling technologies in integrating quantum capabilities with control of mobile robotic systems. In this paper, in particular, the automated alignment is studied while considering the uncertainties in the dynamic of the system which can potentially cause the alignment task very challenging. The uncertainty analysis in the automated alignment is implemented by Optimal Uncertainty Quantification technique to ensure achieving the quantum control of the robotic systems and presented here for the first time.
