A Survey on Quantum Channel Capacities

Understand

Quantum information processing exploits the quantum nature of information.

• It offers fundamentally new solutions in the field of computer science and extends the possibilities to a level that cannot be imagined in classical communication systems.
• For quantum communication channels, many new capacity definitions were developed in comparison to classical counterparts.
• A quantum channel can be used to realize classical information transmission or to deliver quantum information, such as quantum entanglement.
