Quantum network coding based on remote state preparation of arbitrary two-qubit states
Jiang Min, Shuai Zhou, MengXiao Ding · 2017
As a specific example of network coding, the butterfly network often represents the networks with bottlenecks. In this paper, we propose a typical butterfly quantum network coding scheme based on remote state preparation of arbitrary two-qubit states with the assistance of GHZ channels. Firstly, in a butterfly network, each source node simultaneously performs two appropriate projective measurements under suitable measurement basis on their own qubits. Next, their measurement results would be distributed to mid-side nodes. In the following, midside nodes perform encoded operations and send their encoded information to destination nodes. Finally, two destination nodes obtain the target state according to all information they receive with the success probability 1.
