Rethinking Video Transmission: A Quantum Fourier Transform-Based Approach for Error-Prone Channels

Udara Jayasinghe, Anil Fernando

Reliable video transmission over error-prone channels remains a significant challenge due to the inherent trade-off between compression efficiency and noise resilience in conventional systems. To address these issues, this paper introduces a novel quantum Fourier transform (QFT)-based framework that integrates video compression and transmission within a unified quantum frequency-domain representation. The framework converts video data into a classical bitstream and maps it onto multi-qubit quantum states with variable encoding sizes (n), enabling flexible control over compression levels. Through the application of the QFT, these states are transformed into the frequency domain, where only selected coefficients are transmitted to reduce bandwidth requirements. At the receiver, the transmitted components are used to reconstruct the full representation, followed by inverse transformation and decoding to recover the video sequence. The performance of the proposed framework is evaluated using peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), structural similarity index measure (SSIM), and video multi-method assessment fusion (VMAF). The results demonstrate that increasing the number of qubits enables exponential compression, achieving ratios up to 2n:1, while maintaining high reconstruction quality under ideal transmission conditions. However, higher-qubit configurations exhibit increased sensitivity to channel noise, leading to a more rapid degradation as the signal-to-noise ratio decreases. In contrast, lower-qubit configurations provide improved robustness, maintaining more stable reconstruction quality under noisy conditions, albeit with reduced compression efficiency. Among the evaluated configurations, the two-qubit system achieves an effective trade-off, providing a compression ratio of 4:1 while maintaining strong visual and structural fidelity along with enhanced resilience to channel impairments.

Complex-Valued Unitary Superposition–Driven Multi-Qubit Encoding for Quantum Video Transmission

Udara Jayasinghe, Anil Fernando

Reliable high-fidelity video transmission over noisy quantum channels remains challenging, especially due to temporal dependencies introduced by modern video compression standards. These codecs, such as versatile video coding (VVC), employ inter-frame prediction and group-of-pictures (GOP) structures, which are highly sensitive to channel noise and can lead to error propagation across frames. Conventional quantum encoding schemes, such as Hadamard-based superposition encoding, use fixed real-valued basis transformations that provide limited phase diversity and underutilize the multi-qubit state-space, reducing robustness under noisy quantum channels. To overcome these limitations, this study proposes a multi-qubit complex-valued orthogonal unitary superposition (COUS) encoding framework for quantum video transmission. In the proposed system, VVC-compressed video bitstreams are first protected using classical channel encoding, then segmented and mapped onto multi-qubit COUS quantum states, enabling joint amplitude and phase representation with improved resilience to quantum noise. At the receiver, transmitted quantum states undergo sequential COUS decoding, channel decoding, and VVC bitstream reconstruction to recover the original video frames. The simulation results show that COUS-based multi-qubit system outperforms the Hadamard encoding-based multi-qubit system, achieving peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) up to 47.22 dB, structural similarity index measure (SSIM) up to 0.9905, and video multi-method assessment fusion (VMAF) up to 96.49. Even single-qubit COUS encoding achieves 3–4 dB channel SNR gain, while higher-qubit configurations further enhance robustness and reconstructed video quality. These results confirm that the proposed framework is scalable, noise-resilient, and provides high-fidelity quantum video transmission over noisy channels.

High-Fidelity Image Transmission in Quantum Communication with Frequency Domain Multi-Qubit Techniques

Udara Jayasinghe, Thanuj Fernando, Anil Fernando

This paper proposes a novel quantum image transmission framework to address the limitations of existing single-qubit time domain systems, which struggle with noise resilience and scalability. The framework integrates frequency domain processing with multi-qubit (1 to 8 qubits) encoding to enhance robustness against quantum noise. Initially, images are source-coded using JPEG and HEIF formats with rate adjustment to ensure consistent bandwidth usage. The resulting bitstreams are channel-encoded and mapped to multi-qubit quantum states. These states are transformed into the frequency domain via the quantum Fourier transform (QFT) for transmission. At the receiver, the inverse QFT recovers the time domain states, followed by multi-qubit decoding, channel decoding, and source decoding to reconstruct the image. Performance is evaluated using bit error rate (BER), peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), structural similarity index measure (SSIM), and universal quality index (UQI). Results show that increasing the number of qubits enhances image quality and noise robustness, albeit at the cost of increased system complexity. Compared to time domain processing, the frequency domain approach achieves superior performance across all qubit configurations, with the eight-qubit system delivering up to a 4 dB maximum channel SNR gain for both JPEG and HEIF images. Although single-qubit systems benefit less from frequency domain encoding due to limited representational capacity, the overall framework demonstrates strong potential for scalable and noise-robust quantum image transmission in future quantum communication networks.
