ASYMMETRIC QUANTUM PRODUCT CODES
Giuliano G. La Guardia · International Journal of Quantum Information · 2012
A family of asymmetric quantum codes derived from the product code of two (classical) Reed–Solomon (RS) codes is constructed in this paper. This family is constructed by applying the Calderbank–Shor–Steane (CSS) construction. The proposed codes can be utilized in quantum channels having great asymmetry, that is, quantum channels in which the probability of occurrence of phase-shift errors is large when compared to the probability of occurrence of qudit-flip errors.
