Abstract

In distributed wireless quantum communication networks, because of the storage of the clients, the EPR pairs are important resources. The lack of EPR pairs limits the size of networks. Besides, to accomplish quantum teleportation, both classical and quantum information need to be transmitted. We may have difficulty in building classical and quantum channels at the same time. To solve these problems, we introduce mesh structure into wireless quantum communication. The distributed wireless quantum networks can be improved by this mesh structure we proposed. Moreover, a quantum routing protocol based on quantum relay mechanism is proposed in this mesh structure.

A Novel Quantum Entanglement Wireless Relay Scheme and RQCP Protocol

Guangyue Lu

Wireless quantum communication is one of the most important parts in the future quantum communication.Quantum entanglement relay is one of the key technologies in wireless quantum communication systems.However,there are so many kinds of interference and noise in wireless channel that it is very hard to realize the relay of the quantum states.To solve the problem,the two quanta relay schemes based on mobile terminals and base stations are presented firstly.The layered structure of wireless quantum communication and the quantum states routing protocol(RQCP) in wireless transmission are presented also.Theory analysis results show that the scheme above can transmit quanta states although no EPR pairs shared by source and objective nodes,and the time delay in transmission has nothing to do with the number of wireless hopping.It proved that the model and scheme are optimal.

Distributed wireless quantum communication networks

Xutao Yu, Jin S. Y. Xu, Zaichen Zhang

The distributed wireless quantum communication network (DWQCN) has a distributed network topology and transmits information by quantum states. In this paper, we present the concept of the DWQCN and propose a system scheme to transfer quantum states in the DWQCN. The system scheme for transmitting information between any two nodes in the DWQCN includes a routing protocol and a scheme for transferring quantum states. The routing protocol is on-demand and the routing metric is selected based on the number of entangled particle pairs. After setting up a route, quantum teleportation and entanglement swapping are used for transferring quantum states. Entanglement swapping is achieved along with the process of routing set up and the acknowledgment packet transmission. The measurement results of each entanglement swapping are piggybacked with route reply packets or acknowledgment packets. After entanglement swapping, a direct quantum link between source and destination is set up and quantum states are transferred by quantum teleportation. Adopting this scheme, the measurement results of entanglement swapping do not need to be transmitted specially, which decreases the wireless transmission cost and transmission delay.

Quantum communication for wireless wide-area networks

Sheng-Tzong Cheng, Chun-Yen Wang, Ming-Hon Tao

In this paper, a quantum routing mechanism is proposed to teleport a quantum state from one quantum device to another wirelessly even though these two devices do not share EPR pairs mutually. This results in the proposed quantum routing mechanism that can be used to construct the quantum wireless networks. In terms of time complexity, the proposed mechanism transports a quantum bit in time almost the same as the quantum teleportation does regardless of the number of hops between the source and destination. From this point of view, the quantum routing mechanism is close to optimal in data transmission time. In addition, in order to realize the wireless communication in the quantum domain, a hierarchical network architecture and its corresponding communication protocol are developed. Based on these network components, a scalable quantum wireless communication can be achieved.

Routing protocol for wireless quantum multi-hop mesh backbone network based on partially entangled GHZ state

Pei-Ying Xiong, Xutao Yu, Zaichen Zhang +2 more

Quantum multi-hop teleportation is important in the field of quantum communication. In this study, we propose a quantum multi-hop communication model and a quantum routing protocol with multihop teleportation for wireless mesh backbone networks. Based on an analysis of quantum multi-hop protocols, a partially entangled Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) state is selected as the quantum channel for the proposed protocol. Both quantum and classical wireless channels exist between two neighboring nodes along the route. With the proposed routing protocol, quantum information can be transmitted hop by hop from the source node to the destination node. Based on multi-hop teleportation based on the partially entangled GHZ state, a quantum route established with the minimum number of hops. The difference between our routing protocol and the classical one is that in the former, the processes used to find a quantum route and establish quantum channel entanglement occur simultaneously. The Bell state measurement results of each hop are piggybacked to quantum route finding information. This method reduces the total number of packets and the magnitude of air interface delay. The deduction of the establishment of a quantum channel between source and destination is also presented here. The final success probability of quantum multi-hop teleportation in wireless mesh backbone networks was simulated and analyzed. Our research shows that quantum multi-hop teleportation in wireless mesh backbone networks through a partially entangled GHZ state is feasible.
