PERFECT CONTROLLED QUANTUM SECURE DIRECT COMMUNICATION

Abstract

We present a complete controlled quantum secure direct communication (CQSDC) protocol using a nonsymmetric quantum channel. We point out that the roles of controllers in two recent works16,17 can be excluded due to their design. We also give a revised CQSDC protocol such that their original advantages are retained and the complete CQSDC can be realized. We then analyze the roles of the controllers in different CQSDC protocols with different purposes and these protocols' applicabilities.

Revisiting Controlled Quantum Secure Direct Communication Using a Non-symmetric Quantum Channel with Quantum Superdense Coding

Jun Liu, Yimin Liu, Yan Xia +1 more

Recently Xia and Song [Phys. Lett. A 364 (2007) 117] have proposed a controlled quantum secure direct communication (CQSDC) protocol. They claimed that in their protocol only with the help of the controller Charlie, the receiver Alice can successfully extract the secret message from the sender Bob. In this letter, first we will show that within their protocol the controller Charlie's role could have been excluded if it were not for their unreasonable design. We then revise the Xia–Song CQSDC protocol such that its original advantages are retained and the CQSDC can be really realized.

A new controlled quantum secure direct communication protocol based on a four-qubit cluster state

Meiling Wang, Wenping Ma, Dongsu Shen +1 more

A new controlled quantum secure direct communication (CQSDC) protocol is presented by using a four-particle cluster state as quantum channel and the physical characteristics of controlled quantum teleportation to implement the transmission and the control. In this scheme, the receiver can receive the secret message from the sender and recover the secret message under the permission of the controller. According to the security analysis, the communication is secure against both participant and outside attacks, so this CQSDC protocol is secure and feasible.

CONTROLLED QUANTUM SECURE DIRECT COMMUNICATION WITH QUANTUM ENCRYPTION

Xiu‐Bo Chen, Tian‐Yin Wang, DU Jian-zhong +2 more

Utilizing a partially entangled GHZ state, we propose a novel controlled quantum secure direct communication (QSDC) with quantum encryption. Under the supervision and help of the third side, the sender and the receiver can securely share the private quantum entanglement keys used to encrypt and decrypt the secret message. According to the results of checking the eavesdropping on decoy photons, communicators can decide whether the quantum keys are reused in the next round. Not only will eavesdropping inevitably disturb the states of the decoy photons and be detected, but arbitrary transmission errors can also be corrected.

Fault-tolerant controlled quantum secure direct communication over a collective quantum noise channel

Chun‐Wei Yang, Chia‐Wei Tsai, Tzonelih Hwang

This work proposes controlled quantum secure direct communication (CQSDC) over an ideal channel. Based on the proposed CQSDC, two fault-tolerant CQSDC protocols that are robust under two kinds of collective noises, collective-dephasing noise and collective-rotation noise, respectively, are constructed. Due to the use of quantum entanglement of the Bell state (or logical Bell state) as well as dense coding, the proposed protocols provide easier implementation as well as better qubit efficiency than other CQSDC protocols. Furthermore, the proposed protocols are also free from correlation-elicitation attack and other well-known attacks.

CONTROLLED QUANTUM SECURE DIRECT COMMUNICATION WITH W STATE

Xiu‐Bo Chen, Qiaoyan Wen, Fen-Zhuo Guo +3 more

Utilizing W state, which is much more robust than GHZ state, we propose a protocol for three-party controlled quantum secure direct communication (QSDC). The feature of this protocol is that the sender encodes the secret message directly on a sequence of particle states and faithfully transmits them to an arbitrary one of two receivers without revealing any information to a potential eavesdropper. On the other hand, we construct the efficient quantum circuit to implement the QSDC by means of primitive operations in quantum computation.
