A simple review of quantum communication and quantum communication experiments in three different mediums
Siyuan Ji
Quantum communication is an implementation based on quantum mechanics. This includes quantum entanglement theory, quantum cryptography, quantum teleportation, quantum repeater, and quantum storage. All components of quantum communication except entanglement are reviewed in this paper. Besides, this paper discusses three different media, land, underwater and space, in which quantum communication can be operated. Quantum communication on land and underwater uses optical fibers, and quantum communication in space uses satellites. In this paper, two experiments for each of these three media are carried out to illustrate how quantum communication is established on these three media. Thus, quantum communication and its three media are reviewed in this paper.
