Quantum Secure Direct Communication with W State

Hai-Jing Cao, He‐Shan Song

Published Jan 30, 2006• 116 citations

Abstract

A new theoretical scheme for quantum secure direct communication is proposed, where four-qubit symmetric W state functions as quantum channel. It is shown that two legitimate users can directly transmit the secret messages by using Bell-basis measurements and classical communication. The scheme is completely secure if the quantum channel is perfect. Even if the quantum channel is unsecured, it is still possible for two users to perform their secure communication. One bit secret message can be transmitted by sending a bit classical information.

Quantum Secure Direct Communication Protocol Based on W State

Lü Xin

A novel two-party quantum secure direct communication protocol was proposed.By using ordered four-particle W state as carrier of information,encoding the secret message with unitary transformation,we can directly transmit secret message with local Bell-basis measurement and classical communication.In ideal channel,the protocol is secure against incoherent attack.The advantage of this scheme is that using W state is more little than GHZ state in energy loss and no quantum bit carrying secret message is transmitted in quantum channel.

An Efficient Deterministic Secure Quantum Communication Scheme with W State

Wenjie Liu, Hanwu Chen, Tinghuai Ma +1 more

In this paper, a novel deterministic secure quantum communication scheme with four-qubit W states is proposed. By utilizing four kinds of unitary operations, the two legitimate users can directly transmit the secret messages based on the Bell measurements and some additional classical information. Analysis shows that our scheme has a high capacity as each W state can carry two bits of secret information, and has a high efficiency as the intrinsic efficiency approaches the maximal value 100% and the total efficiency is 33.3%. Moreover, this scheme is unconditionally secure and feasible with present-day technique.

DETERMINISTIC SECURE QUANTUM COMMUNICATION WITH FOUR-QUBIT W STATES

Hao Yuan, Jun Song, Xiangyuan Liu +3 more

We propose a new protocol for deterministic secure quantum communication with a four-qubit W state. In this protocol, by using four local two-particle unitary operations and Bell basis measurements, the two legitimate users can directly transmit secret messages after exchanging some additional classical information. It will be shown that our protocol has a high capacity as each W state can carry two bits of secret information, and has a high intrinsic efficiency because almost all the instances are useful. Furthermore, this protocol is feasible with present day techniques.

Alternative and Secure Direct Communication with W State

汪新文, Xiang Liu

A theoretical scheme for alternative and secure direct communication is proposed. The communication is based on controlled quantum teleportation via state. After insuring the security of the quantum channels (a set of qubits in the states), Alice encodes the secret messages directly on a sequence of particle states and transmits them to Bob supported by Charlie, or to Charlie supported by Bob, using controlled quantum teleportation. Bob or Charlie can read out the encoded messages directly by the measurement on his qubits. In this scheme, the controlled quantum teleportation transmits Alice's message without revealing any information to a potential eavesdropper. Because there is no a transmission of the qubits carrying the secret messages between legitimate parties in the public channel, it is completely secure for direct secret communication if perfect quantum channel is used. We also discuss that when one of the three legitimate parties does not cooperate with others because of some reasons, the remaining two persons can still communicate with each other by entanglement purification. The main feature of this scheme is that the communicate between two sides is alternative but depends on the agreement of the third, and more over, the communication between two sides does not suspend with loss of one of three qubits ( i.e., one of the three legitimate parties does not cooperate with others).
