Futuristic view of the Internet of Quantum Drones: Review, challenges and research agenda

Adarsh Kumar, Diego Augusto de Jesús Pacheco, Keshav Kaushik +1 more

The disruptive technology of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), or drones, is a trend with increasing applications and practical relevance in the current and future society. Despite the common interest in drones for commercial deliveries, the use of this disruptive technology can be examined in the contexts of other world strategic demands such as climate change issues and traffic management. As of very recently, some drone-related futuristic disruptive technologies, including quantum drones (QD), the Internet of Quantum Drones (IoQDs), and a constellation of quantum satellites (CQS), are expected to be a breakthrough technology in strategic areas of society. However, prior research has not adequately examined and explored the potential applications of these drone-related futuristic disruptive technologies for social concern. Therefore, this study investigates how QD, IoQDs, and CQS can be applied in new contexts in real-time applications in strategic areas of societal interest, especially during the quantum age. Overall, our results unveil new potential and advanced applications to drone-related disruptive technologies in recognized and new contexts. Two relevant implications are highlighted. First, this research inaugurates new contexts regarding the use of drone-related technologies enabled by the Internet in themes of economic and social concerns. Second, from a futuristic point of view, the study examines the main challenges, risks, and advantages of the practical use of these technologies. We conclude this research with a summary of the main gaps and scientific challenges to the field and propose opportunities for future research.

Quantum Networking: Creating the Future Landscape of Refined Classical Communication

Ayush Kumar Sharan, Alwin Philip, Purushottam Sharma +1 more

The landscape of communication sits on the edge of a quantum leap. Harnessing the paradoxical rules of quantum mechanics, quantum networks promise the ability to shatter the boundaries of traditional systems, ushering in an age of extraordinary speed, security, and computational powers. This research dives into the unexplored domain of quantum networking, clarifying its transformational potential and charting a course toward its practical realization. Crucially, the research transcends ordinary simulations by offering conceptual blueprints for a revolutionary quantum-based network architecture. This innovative concept presents entanglement distribution and quantum key distribution as applications built upon the network itself, rather than demanding bespoke network infrastructures. To painstakingly investigate this proposed model, quantum circuits were meticulously simulated, and their results juxtaposed with established quantum algorithms, revealing vital insights into its performance and potential. This research establishes the framework for the quantum Internet, not as a distant goal but as an attainable future. By delving into the integration of the proposed model with existing network topologies, the path towards a unified quantum environment is paved. The consequences of this study reach far beyond theoretical advances; they beckon a future where unbreakable encryption preserves sensitive information, communication spans vast distances with amazing speed, and distributed quantum computers unleash previously inconceivable frontiers.
