Classical frames for a quantum theory ? A bird's-eye view

Asher Peres

Said M. Mikki

We provide a very broad outline for a new research area within the domain for Future Antennas, namely quantum antenna (q-antenna) theory and their applications to building secure digital communication lines. The proposed quantum antenna theory purports to presenting a natural extension of RF antennas in classical wireless to the now established field of quantum communications. The paper provides a bird's eye view on the subject, highlighting the main themes and the expected results and benefits of such research domain.

This chapter begins with a brief history of how classical mechanics evolved into quantum mechanics. Next a bird’s-eye view of the basic aspects of quantum mechanics and its applications is given. In subsequent chapters, these topics are discussed with reasonable completeness, with a minimum of mathematical background.
