Bidirectional Quantum Communication through the Composite GHZ-GHZ Channel

Abstract

This paper solved the problem of transmitting quantum bits (qubits) in a multi-hop and bidirectional way. Considering that the Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) states are less prone to the decoherence effects caused by the surrounding environment, we proposed a bidirectional quantum communication scheme based on quantum teleportation and the composite GHZ-GHZ states. On a multi-hop quantum path, different types of GHZ states are previously shared between the adjacent intermediate nodes. To implement qubit transmission, the sender and intermediate nodes perform quantum measurements in parallel, and then send their measurement results and the types of previously shared GHZ states to the receiver independently. Based on the received information, the receiver performs unitary operations on the local particle, thus retrieving the original qubit. Our scheme can avoid information leakage at the intermediate nodes and can reduce the end-to-end communication delay, in contrast to the hop-by-hop qubit transmission scheme.

Multi-Hop Quantum Communication Based on Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger States and Teleportation

Na Chen, Shuangshuang Shuai, Bin Yan +2 more

Quantum teleportation faithfully transfers the quantum state of a physical system, instead of the system itself, which underlies the proposal of global quantum communication network. In this paper, we propose a faithful multi-hop quantum communication scheme. In a quantum network, different types of Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states are previously shared on quantum links. To implement qubits transmission, the sender and intermediate nodes perform quantum measurements in parallel, and then send their measurement results and the types of previously shared GHZ states to the receiver independently. A general formula is deduced for the receiver, who chooses an appropriate unitary operation to perform on the local particle, the original qubit can be retrieved. Our scheme shows advantages in quantum communication delay.

Multi-hop teleportation of unknown qutrit state based on the GHZ channels

Yi Ding, Min Jiang

The combination of quantum communication technology and wireless networks brings a flexible and secure communication method, which adapts to a more complex network environment. In this paper, a new multi-hop teleportation scheme is investigated for transferring an unknown qutrit state between distant parties. The intermediate nodes are introduced and linked with each other via partially entangled Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states as quantum channels. In this multi-hop teleportation protocol, the source node and all the intermediate nodes can perform the entanglement measurement and transmit the measurement results simultaneously. Furthermore, we find the relationship between the measurement results and the receiver’s state, which is given as the matrix form. Compared with previous protocols for multi-hop transmission, our scheme can reduce the transmission delay and save the transmission overhead.

Bidirectional Quantum Teleportation by Using Two GHZ-States as the Quantum Channel

Vikram Verma

Bidirectional quantum teleportation protocol enables two way quantum communication between two quantum nodes in a quantum communication network. In quantum network, the quantum nodes are linked to each other through a quantum channel. In this letter, by using the quantum channel composed of two three-qubit GHZ states, we propose an improved protocol for asymmetric bidirectional quantum teleportation which is based on local CNOT gate operations, Bell state measurements, GHZ-state measurements and unitary operations. Compared with previous protocols for bidirectional quantum teleportation, the proposed protocol requires less consumption of quantum and classical resources, possesses higher intrinsic efficiency and less operation complexity.

Faithful Multi-Hop Qubit Transmission Based on GHZ States

Na Chen, Bin Yan, Shuangshuang Shuai +1 more

Quantum teleportation faithfully transfers quantum bits (qubits) between distant nodes, which enables global quantum communication network. In this paper, a scheme for faithful multi-hop qubit transmission is proposed employing parallel quantum measurements. In terms of communication delay, the proposed scheme transports a qubit in time almost the same as the one-hop quantum teleportation does regardless of the number of hops between the source and destination.

Multi-hop teleportation in a quantum network based on mesh topology

Xiaoqin Gao, Zaichen Zhang, Bin Sheng

In this paper, we propose a mesh-topology-based multi-hop teleportation scheme for a quantum network. By using the proposed scheme, quantum communication can be realized between two arbitrary nodes, even when they do not share a direct quantum channel. Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen pairs are used as quantum channels. The source node (initial sender) and all intermediate nodes make Bell measurements independently. They send the results to the destination node (final receiver) by classical channels. The quantum state can be determined from the Bell measurement result, and only the destination node is required for simple unitary transformation. This method of simultaneous measurement contributes significantly to quantum network by reducing the hop-by-hop transmission delay.

Multiple teleportation via partially entangled GHZ state

Pei-Ying Xiong, Xutao Yu, Hai-Tao Zhan +1 more

Quantum teleportation is important for quantum communication. We propose a protocol that uses a partially entangled Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) state for single hop teleportation. Quantum teleportation will succeed if the sender makes a Bell state measurement, and the receiver performs the Hadamard gate operation, applies appropriate Pauli operators, introduces an auxiliary particle, and applies the corresponding unitary matrix to recover the transmitted state.We also present a protocol to realize multiple teleportation of partially entangled GHZ state without an auxiliary particle. We show that the success probability of the teleportation is always 0 when the number of teleportations is odd. In order to improve the success probability of a multihop, we introduce the method used in our single hop teleportation, thus proposing a multiple teleportation protocol using auxiliary particles and a unitary matrix. The final success probability is shown to be improved significantly for the method without auxiliary particles for both an odd or even number of teleportations.
