Quantum Event-Error Detection Codes
Ying Guo, Guihua Zeng · Journal of the Physical Society of Japan · 2005
To simultaneously detect random and burst quantum errors which may be generalized as quantum event errors, a quantum error detection code, called the quantum event-error detection code, is first investigated in analogy to the classical event-error detection code. The proposed code can be used to detect the length, number and location of errors occurring in every error event. Two special quantum event-error detection codes are constructed by exploiting different approaches according to the derived syndrome, and their number-bound of generators of the stabilizer is also derived. Finally, the proposed theory on the quantum event-error detection code for quantum single-event error is extended to a more general case, i.e., the quantum composite-event error, so that the general quantum event-error detection code can be constructed.
