AbstractThe quantum internet is a cutting‐edge paradigm that uses the unique characteristics of quantum technology to radically alter communication networks. This new network type is expected to collaborate with 6G networks, creating a synergy that will fundamentally alter how we communicate, engage, and trade information. The improved security, increased speed, and increased network capacity of the quantum internet will lead to the emergence of a broad variety of new applications and services. The current state of quantum technology and its integration with 6G networks are summarised in this study, with an emphasis on the key challenges and untapped possibilities. The main goal is to get knowledge about how the quantum internet might impact communication in the future and alter several economic and societal sectors.
This review paper includes a comprehensive overview of the recently established quantum internet and 6G technologies, as well as a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental principles in these domains.image

AbstractIn recent years, numerous research advancements have extended the limit of classical simulation of quantum algorithms. Although, most of the state‐of‐the‐art classical simulators are only limited to binary quantum systems, which restrict the classical simulation of higher‐dimensional quantum computing systems. Through recent developments in higher‐dimensional quantum computing systems, it is realised that implementing qudits improves the overall performance of a quantum algorithm by increasing memory space and reducing the asymptotic complexity of a quantum circuit. Hence, in this article, QuDiet, a state‐of‐the‐art user‐friendly python‐based higher‐dimensional quantum computing simulator is introduced. QuDiet offers multi‐valued logic operations by utilising generalised quantum gates with an abstraction so that any naive user can simulate qudit systems with ease as compared to the existing ones. Various benchmark quantum circuits is simulated in QuDiet and show the considerable speedup in simulation time as compared to the other simulators without loss in precision. Finally, QuDiet provides a full qubit‐qudit hybrid quantum simulator package with quantum circuit templates of well‐known quantum algorithms for fast prototyping and simulation. Comprehensive simulation up to 20 qutrits circuit on depth 80 on QuDiet was successfully achieved. The complete code and packages of QuDiet is available at https://github.com/LegacYFTw/QuDiet.

AbstractAs past works have shown, information‐theoretically secure implementations transmitters of Y00 quantum noise randomised cypher are possible. An advance to the provably secure Y00 protocol by bridging gaps between experimental results and theoretical analyses under so‐called quantum collective measurement attacks with known plaintexts is aimed. It would be the strongest attack on the Y00 protocol in the context of quantum key distribution protocols. However, recently proposed security evaluations under the attacks were too abstract to apply to experiments. Therefore, security analyses directly evaluable with the equipped Y00 transmitters under attack are offered. Thus, new security indices are proposed instead of ordinary security measures, such as the bit‐error‐rate guarantee between optical signals or a masking size. Contrarily, unsolved problems are also listed.

AbstractQuantum‐based technologies will provide system engineers with new capabilities for securing data communications. The UK AirQKD project has implemented a Free‐Space Optical Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) system to enable the continuous generation of symmetric encryption keys. One of the use cases for the generated keys is to secure Vehicle‐to‐Everything (V2X) communications. V2X applications would benefit from the certificate‐free security provided by QKD for a post‐quantum society. How FSO‐QKD could integrate into a V2X architecture is examined. An overview of V2X is provided with the role that FSO‐QKD could secure V2X data though some obstacles exist. One of the issues with 6G communications is the potential line‐of‐sight (LOS) considerations between the V2X devices. The modelling required for LOS is examined to analyse the outage performance of the building to infrastructure links in the 6G architecture. The results from the model show that further work is required if 6G LOS communications are going to be relied upon for future safety‐critical V2X applications.

AbstractIn this article, a protocol for information lossless teleportation using W states is proposed. Firstly, the information lossless teleportation of an unknown state with a maximally entangled W‐state channel, which protects the original unknown state information even in case of teleportation failure is investigated. Next, we generalise our scheme to non‐maximally entangled W‐state channels. Finally, the principle of the proposed scheme is validated by performing experiments on the quantum circuit simulator Quirk. Our study shows that W states can be used to teleport any quantum state without information loss through single‐qubit measurements and local unitary operations.
