High dimensional quantum network coding based on prediction mechanism over the butterfly network

Abstract

Abstract The high-dimensional quantum system greatly improve the quantum channel capacity and information storage space, and achieve high-dimensional quantum information transmission, which enhance the speed of quantum computing and quantum information processing. In this paper, a high-dimensional quantum teleportation protocol without information loss is proposed. We consider pre-sharing a high-dimensional non-maximum entangled state as a quantum channel between sender and receiver. By adding auxiliary particle and performing high-dimensional local operations, it is possible to achieve high-dimensional quantum teleportation without information loss. Simultaneously, we apply the protocol to butterfly network, and propose a novel high-dimensional quantum network coding based on prediction mechanism. In our scheme, we use Z-{|0⟩, |1⟩} basis to predict the transmission of high dimensional states over the butterfly network. When the prediction is successful, the deterministic transmission of high-dimensional quantum states can be realized over the butterfly network. Our scheme greatly saves the usage of quantum and classical channels, which improves the utilization efficiency of both channels.
