Capacity of multiple-input multiple-output quantum depolarizing channels

Hailin Xiao, Shan Ouyang · Journal of Applied Physics · 2012

Decoherence-free subspaces (DFS) are to utilize the symmetric properties of the interaction between the system and environment so that they can be tolerant against the effect of decoherence. In this paper, we propose multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) scheme to drive a finite-dimensional quantum system into DFS. For quantum system, the scheme is not only immune to dephasing but also feasible with currently available technology. Motivated by Shannon mutual information, we derive the capacity of MIMO quantum depolarizing channels.
