Abstract

Capacity of dense coding via correlated noisy channel is greater than that via uncorrelated noisy channel. It is shown that the weak measurement and reversal measurement need to further improve their quantum dense coding capacity in correlated amplitude damping channel, but this improvement is very small in correlated phase damping channel and correlated depolarizing channel.

Improving the Capacity of Quantum Dense Coding and the Fidelity of Quantum Teleportation by Weak Measurement and Measurement Reversal

Meijiao Wang, Bing Sun, Lianzhen Cao +4 more

A protective scheme of quantum dense coding and quantum teleportation of the X-type initial state is proposed in amplitude damping noisy channel with memory using weak measurement and measurement reversal. Compared with the noisy channel without memory, the memory factor improves both the capacity of quantum dense coding and the fidelity of the quantum teleportation to a certain extent for the given damping coefficient. Although the memory factor can inhibit decoherence in some degree, it cannot eliminate it completely. In order to further overcome the influence of the damping coefficient, the weak measurement protective scheme is proposed, which found that the capacity and the fidelity can be efficiently improved by adjusting weak measurement parameter. Another practical conclusion is that, among the three initial states, the weak measurement protective scheme has the best protective effect on the Bell-state in terms of the capacity and the fidelity. For the channel with no memory and full memory, the channel capacity of quantum dense coding reaches two and the fidelity of quantum teleportation reaches one for the bit system; the Bell system can recover the initial state completely with a certain probability. It can be seen that the entanglement of the system can be well protected by the weak measurement scheme, which provides a good support for the realization of quantum communication.

Quantum Dense Coding Transfer Framework of Phase Damping Channel System using Weak Measurement and Correction Rotation

Jun‐Pyo Hong, Hyunsoo Lee

Quantum dense coding is one of the important quantum computing techniques in communication. Quantum dense coding uses a small number of qubits for transmitions using the quantum entanglement state, which can deliver more classical bit data. However, during a transmission process, the coherence and quantum entanglement state may collapse owing to the influence of the embedding noise channel that a common quantum computing system has. This issue results in a decrease in the transmission capacity of quantum dense coding. Several techniques have been studied to reduce the influences of quantum noise channels. However, these research studies assumed limited quantum environment. This study proposes a new and effective framework to prevent the collapse of quantum entanglement states, focusing on a time-correlated phase damping channels. The quantum state is analyzed using quantum weak measurement (WM), and a correction rotation (CR) technique is integrated to restore it to its initial phase. The effectiveness of the proposed framework is demonstrated experimentally with the comparisons with existing quantum noise reduction techniques.

Enhanced Superdense Coding over Correlated Amplitude Damping Channel

Yan‐Ling Li, Dong-Mei Wei, Chuanjin Zu +1 more

Quantum channels with correlated effects are realistic scenarios for the study of noisy quantum communication when the channels are consecutively used. In this paper, superdense coding is reexamined under a correlated amplitude damping (CAD) channel. Two techniques named as weak measurement and environment-assisted measurement are utilized to enhance the capacity of superdense coding. The results show that both of them enable us to battle against the CAD decoherence and improve the capacity with a certain probability. Remarkably, the scheme of environment-assisted measurement always outperforms the scheme of weak measurement in both improving the capacity and successful probability. These notable superiorities could be attributed to the fact that environment-assisted measurement can extract additional information from the environment and thus it performs much better.

Enhancing Dense Coding Reliability under Noisy Quantum Channels Through Redundancy Strategies

Krishna Madhav Nukala, Dadinaboina A. K.Rao, N. Nagasoudhamani +3 more

Quantum dense coding enables the transmission of two classical bits of information through the exchange of a single qubit, provided that an entangled state is shared between the communicating parties. While this protocol achieves a fundamental increase in channel capacity, its practical realization is strongly influenced by the presence of noise in realistic quantum channels. This work presents a simulation-based study of dense coding performance under two representative noise models: the depolarizing channel and the amplitude damping channel. Using Qiskit Aer, the bit error rate (BER), frame error rate (FER), and effective channel capacity are evaluated across a range of noise parameters. In addition, a classical threefold repetition strategy is examined as a lightweight error-mitigation technique. Results indicate that depolarizing noise produces more rapid degradation in both BER and channel capacity compared to amplitude damping, while repetition coding provides partial improvement in reliability at the expense of resource overhead. These findings highlight the trade-offs between efficiency and robustness in noisy implementations of dense coding and motivate further exploration of more advanced quantum error correction methods.

Quantum communication via noisy channels

Z. Shadman

Quantum communication is at the heart of the quantum information theory. We study two types of quantum communication protocols over noisy transmission channels, i.e. super dense coding and cryptography protocols. In the first part of this thesis, for various scenarios, it is discussed how the super dense coding capacity is influenced by noisy quantum channels. The case of memoryless channels as well as those channels with memory which are modelled by uncorrelated and correlated noise, respectively, are considered. Explicitly Pauli channels over arbitrary dimensions are treated and the super dense coding capacity for some resource states is derived. For the qubit depolarizing channel, when noise is uncorrelated, the super dense coding capacity with respect to the input state is also optimized. This illustrates a threshold value of the noise parameter below which the super dense coding capacity is optimized by a maximally entangled initial state, while above the threshold value the super dense coding capacity is optimized by a product state. For Pauli channels, with correlated noise, the case of non unitary encoding is studied and the super dense coding capacity is derived. The first part of this thesis is concluded with an example for multipartite super dense coding. In the second part of the thesis, the problem of optimal eavesdropping on noisy states in quantum key distribution is investigated. The case of the six state protocol, when the signal states are mixed with white noise, is considered. This situation may arise either when Alice deliberately adds noise to the signal states before they leave her lab, or, in a realistic scenario when the eavesdropper (referred to as Eve) is not assumed to replace the noisy quantum channel by a noiseless one. For individual attacks, we find Eve's optimal mutual information with Alice as a function of the quantum bit error rate. Finally, the results illustrate that adding noise on the quantum level can make quantum key distribution more robust against eavesdropping.

Improving the capacity of quantum dense coding via non-Hermitian operation

Yang Leng, Fei Chen

Abstract We propose a novel method to enhance the capacity of quantum dense coding under amplitude damping noise using non-Hermitian operations. With the assistance of non-Hermitian operations, we show that the capacity of quantum dense coding can always be larger than 1 for any two-qubit states. In particular, the non-Hermitian operation can improve quantum dense coding more efficiently in the case of strong decoherence strength than those with small decoherence strength. Our results shed new light on the protection of quantum dense coding in a quantum environment.
