Abstract

Achieving high fidelity of quantum teleportation (QT) in a noisy environment is an essential requirement for its real-world applications. To this end, we devise a distinctive protocol for ensuring teleportation fidelity {\it close to unity}, hinging essentially on the timing of Alice's Bell-basis measurement (BM) dependent on the choice of Bob's local noise parameters, but is independent of Alice's local noise. Our scheme is enabled by Alice communicating to Bob only two of the BM outcomes corresponding to the states that are decoherence-free under common dephasing at Alice's wing. On the other hand, Bob is asked to discard the states of his qubit for the other two BM outcomes in order to maximize fidelity of the teleported state. This ensures the teleportation fidelity's independence of noise parameters in Alice's wing. We formulate the protocol in terms of a generic two-level quantum system, subjected to non-Markovian dephasing noise, applicable for any pure maximally/non-maximally entangled state as well as a Werner-type mixed state as resource. Notably, we show that high fidelity is achievable even using resource states with small values of the entanglement measure. Remarkably, even within the local regime of Werner states, where Bell-CHSH inequalities are not violated, the teleportation fidelity remains significantly high. Finally, we discuss the empirical feasibility of our scheme using photonic qubits.

Teleportation fidelity and its deviation for an arbitrary two-qubit state when the classical communication is noisy

Pratapaditya Bej, Saronath Halder, Ritabrata Sengupta

In this work, we consider the following teleportation protocol: There is an arbitrary two-qubit resource state, shared between two spatially separated parties, Alice and Bob. Applying local unitary operators, they transform the resource state into the canonical form. To teleport an unknown qubit, Alice now measures her qubits in the Bell basis. Then, the measurement outcome is communicated by Alice to Bob via noisy classical channel(s). Finally, after receiving the classical message, Bob applies the necessary unitary operator to his qubit. Under this protocol, we find the exact formulae of teleportation fidelity and its deviation. We further find conditions for non-classical fidelity within this protocol. If the classical communication is noiseless in the above protocol then there are resource states which can lead to zero fidelity deviation. However, we show that such states may not lead to zero fidelity deviation when the classical communication is noisy in the same protocol. We also explore the opposite case, i.e., the states, which cannot lead to zero fidelity deviation in the above protocol when the classical communication is noiseless, may lead to zero fidelity deviation when the classical communication is noisy in the same protocol without compromising the non-classical fidelity. Moreover, we exhibit scenarios within the present protocol, where the fidelity deviation increases if the entanglement of the resource state is increased.

Optimal teleportation fidelity and its deviation in noisy scenarios

Pratapaditya Bej, Saronath Halder, Ritabrata Sengupta

In this work, we study quantum teleportation, a fundamental protocol of quantum physics. In particular, we present a mathematical methodology to study the combined effects of noisy resource state and noisy classical communication on teleportation fidelity and its deviation. We describe a teleportation protocol where an arbitrary two-qubit state in canonical form is used as a resource. Thereafter, to teleport an unknown qubit, Alice measures her qubits in Bell basis and conveys the measurement outcome to Bob via noisy classical channel(s). We derive the exact formulae of optimal teleportation fidelity and corresponding fidelity deviation where the resource state and the classical communication, both can be noisy. To provide the proof of optimality, we provide a systematic method. We further find conditions for non-classical fidelity and dispersion-free teleportation for our teleportation protocol. In this way, we identify noisy environments where it is possible to achieve dispersion-free teleportation without compromising non-classical fidelity. We also demonstrate scenarios where the increase of entanglement in the resource state, may degrade the quality of teleportation — a counter-intuitive instance. Finally, we discuss about the minimum classical communication cost required to achieve non-classical fidelity for our protocol. Here we mainly focus on a possible way to optimize the classical communication cost.

Probabilistic quantum teleportation in the presence of noise

Raphael Fortes, Gustavo Rigolin

We extend the research program initiated in [Phys. Rev. A 92, 012338 (2015)] from noisy deterministic teleportation protocols to noisy probabilistic (conditional) protocols. Our main goal now is to study how we can increase the fidelity of the teleported state in the presence of noise by working with probabilistic protocols. We work with several scenarios involving the most common types of noise in realistic implementations of quantum communication tasks and find many cases where adding more noise to the probabilistic protocol increases considerably the fidelity of the teleported state, without decreasing the probability of a successful run of the protocol. Also, there are cases where the entanglement of the channel connecting Alice and Bob leading to the greatest fidelity is not maximal. Moreover, there exist cases where the optimal fidelity for the probabilistic protocols are greater than the maximal fidelity $(2/3)$ achievable by using only classical resources, while the optimal ones for the deterministic protocols under the same conditions lie below this limit. This result clearly illustrates that in some cases we can only get a truly quantum teleportation if we use probabilistic instead of deterministic protocols.

Noisy quantum teleportation: An experimental study on the influence of local environments

Laura T. Knoll, Christian Tomás Schmiegelow, M. A. Larotonda

We report experimental results on the action of selected local environments on the fidelity of the quantum teleportation protocol, taking into account nonideal, realistic entangled resources. Different working conditions are theoretically identified, where a noisy protocol can be made almost insensitive to the further addition of noise. We put to test these conditions on a photonic implementation of the quantum teleportation algorithm, where two polarization entangled qubits act as the entangled resource and a path qubit on Alice encodes the state to be teleported. Bob's path qubit is used to implement a local environment, while the environment on Alice's qubit is simulated as a weighted average of different pure states. We obtain a good agreement with the theoretical predictions, experimentally recreate the conditions to obtain a noise-induced enhancement of the protocol fidelity, and identify parameter regions of increased insensibility to interactions with specific noisy environments.

Repeater-Based Quantum Communication Protocol: Maximizing Teleportation Fidelity with Minimal Entanglement

Arkaprabha Ghosal, Jatin Ghai, Tanmay Saha +2 more

Transmitting unknown quantum states to distant locations is crucial for distributed quantum information protocols. The seminal quantum teleportation scheme achieves this feat while requiring prior maximal entanglement between the sender and receiver. In scenarios with noisy entangled states, optimal teleportation fidelity characterizes the efficacy of transmitting the state, demanding the proper selection of local operations at the sender's and receiver's ends. The complexity escalates further in long-range communication setups, prompting the consideration of a repeater-based approach, which incorporates arrays of nodes with multiple segments to facilitate the efficient transmission of quantum information. The fidelity of the communication line gets degraded even if a single segment is affected by noise. In such cases, the general wisdom employs the standard entanglement swapping protocol involving maximally entangled states across the noiseless segments and applying maximally entangled basis measurement at the corresponding nodes to achieve optimal fidelity. In this Letter, we propose a more efficient protocol for a certain class of noisy states, achieving the same fidelity as the standard protocol while consuming less amount of entanglement. Our approach ensures optimal teleportation fidelity even when the end-to-end state gets noisier, and thus promises efficient utility of quantum resources in repeater-based distributed quantum protocols.

Enhancing teleportation of a single-qubit state by the unitary transformation in arbitrary decoherence rate

Zun-Yi Chen, Jinrong Xu, Jiangying Yu +1 more

Abstract The proposal of the quantum teleportation(QT) is to transfer an unknown quantum state from one place to another through local operations and classical communication. However, the efficiency of standard QT will be significantly reduced due to the influence of the inevitable noise in environments. In this work, we propose two schemes to improve the efficiency of the QT protocol when quantum channel is subjected to bit-flip or phase-flip noise. We find that the so-called more entanglement means low efficiency in the performance of the standard teleportation protocol, and the optimal fidelity is obtained only by using the appropriate unitary operation. Specially, we show that the optimal averaged fidelity to our schemes is always more than the best classically achievable fidelity 2/3. We also provide a physical explanation of the obtained conclusions and our results will be helpful for improving quantum communication with real implementation.
