Abstract

Abstract Quantum communication is a new emerging inter-discipline in which classical communication theory and quantum mechanics are intertwined. Among them, the utilization of quantum entangled state properties is fundamental to the realization of quantum communication. In this way, we can ensure the security and confidentiality of information during transmission based on a new communication scheme, i.e., a quantum dense coding scheme. It enables the transmission of two bits of classical information by transmitting only one qubit. In the past decades, the scheme has attracted the attention of many researchers because of its promising development. In this paper, on top of quantum mechanics, we first review the two-dimensional dense coding scheme and analyze the process implemented by the above scheme. Then it is successfully extended to higher dimensions (three dimensions), predicting the possibility of implementation in more than two dimensions. Finally, the importance of the maximally entangled state for the transmission of this scheme is briefly explained.

Multipartite Dense Coding in Social Internet of Things

Yao Zhang

The world today is interconnected. As we live in the contemporary era, we will undoubtedly feel the importance of information interaction in all aspects. This kind of information interaction needs to be carried out or mediated. Quantum communication is a new way of information interaction that has been pushed to the forefront in the past decade. It not only has the low cost of traditional radio communication but also has the characteristics of long relay distance of optical communication system. Compared with these characteristics, the most important thing is that it has super high confidentiality. This is the most critical point in the information age. Dense coding is an important application of quantum information. It reflects the difference between quantum bits and classical bits in transmission, providing a reliable theoretical basis for improving the effectiveness of remote communication in the future. We discuss two kinds of extensions of the original dense coding. They respectively work for high-dimension and multipartite situations. We give the laws of the two attachments. In the high-dimensional system, we use the Bell state as the target state of any quantum state and realize the one-to-one correspondence between the entangled state and the Bell state. In multipartite space, we can find that the transformation results can form a dimensional space, and the quantum states obtained are one-to-one, corresponding to the classical bit states. In the multipartite system, we can get the transmitted information more efficiently and accurately by limiting data processing by partial senders. At the same time, this restriction will not reduce the amount of information transmitted initially. Therefore, this limited transformation can improve quantum computing power without damaging quantum states.

On Quantum Dense Coding for Bipartite Systems

Yaokun Liu

Quantum communication, as a vital area of quantum information science, aims to leverage quantum phenomena—particularly entanglement—to achieve tasks that are impossible or inefficient in classical systems. It plays a key role in the development of secure communication protocols and advanced information processing. This paper focuses on one such protocol, dense coding, which enables the transmission of two classical bits using only one entangled quantum particle.”We introduce the mathematical and physical foundations of quantum communication, such as the entangled state and Kronecker product. Then we propose the quantum communication protocol, namely dense coding using Bell states. It offer unique advantages that are beyond the classical parts. For this purpose, we in detail analyze the quantum measurements using Pauli gates and identity matrix, as well as the transmission of particle from Alice to Bob. They are necessary steps for dense coding. Then we analyze how Bob finishes the protocol using measurement over two qubits.

QUANTUM SECURE DIRECT COMMUNICATION USING A SIX-QUBIT MAXIMALLY ENTANGLED STATE WITH DENSE CODING

Li Dong, Haikuan Dong, Xiao‐Ming Xiu +2 more

Using quantum dense coding, a quantum secure direct communication scheme with a six-qubit maximally entangled state is proposed. If the first security test is passed, the sender performs unitary transformations to encode the secret information on her particles and sends to the receiver. The receiver then performs projective measurements to decode the secret information. It enables the sender to transmit six-bit classical secret message by sending three particles to the receiver. The second security test is adopted to guarantee the security of the communication.

Dimensional advantage in secure information trading via the noisy dense-coding protocol

Ayan Patra, Rivu Gupta, Tamoghna Das +1 more

The quantum dense-coding (DC) protocol, which has no security feature, deals with the transmission of classical information encoded in a quantum state by using shared entanglement between a single sender and a single receiver. Its appropriate variant has been established as a quantum key distribution (QKD) scheme for shared two-qubit maximally entangled states, with the security proof utilizing the uncertainty relation of complementary observables and the Shor-Preskill entanglement purification scheme. We present the DC-based QKD protocol for higher-dimensional systems and report the lower bounds on the secret key rate, when the shared state is a two-qudit maximally entangled state, and mixtures of maximally entangled states with different ranks. The analysis also includes the impact of noisy channels on the secure key rates, before and after encoding. In both the noiseless and the noisy scenarios, we demonstrate that the key rate as well as the robustness of the protocol against noise increases with the dimension. Further, we prove that the set of useless states in the DC-based QKD protocol is convex and compact.

Scheme for realizing quantum dense coding via entanglement swapping

Nilakantha Meher

Abstract Quantum dense coding is a protocol for transmitting two classical bits of information from a sender (Alice) to a remote receiver (Bob) by sending only one quantum bit (qubit). In this article, we propose an experimentally feasible scheme to realize quantum dense coding via entanglement swapping in a cavity array containing a certain number of two-level atoms. Proper choice of system parameters such as atom–cavity and inter-cavity couplings allows perfect transfer of information. A high fidelity transfer of information is shown to be possible by using recently achieved experimental values in the context of photonic crystal cavities and superconducting resonators. To mimic experimental imperfections, disorder in both the coupling strengths and resonance frequencies is considered.
