Quantum Communication Networks

TRAMA

This book provides a tutorial on quantum communication networks. The authors discuss current paradigm shifts in communication networks that are needed to add computing and storage to the simple transport ideas of prevailing networks. They show how these ‘softwarized’ solutions break new grounds to reduce latency and increase resilience. The authors discuss how even though these solutions have inherent problems due to introduced computing latency and energy consumption, the problems can be solved by hybrid classical-quantum communication networks. The book brings together quantum networking, quantum information theory, quantum computing, and quantum simulation.

Since 2010, he has been with the Institute of Theoretical Information Technology and a Full Professor with the Technische Universität München, Munich, Germany. He was elected asa member of the German Academy of Sciences Leopoldina in 2008 and the Berlin Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities in 2009. Since 2014, he has been a member and an Honorary Fellow of the TUM Institute for Advanced Study, Munich. He is a member of the IEEE Signal Processing Society SPCOM and the SPTM Technical Committee. He was a recipient of the Research Award Technische Kommunikation from the Alcatel SEL Foundation in 2003, the Innovation Award from the Vodafone Foundation in 2006, and the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize from the German Research Foundation in 2008, and the 2007 IEEE Signal Processing Society Best Paper Award, and a corecipient of the 2006 IEEE Signal Processing Society Best Paper Award.   Christian Deppe received the Dipl.-Math. degree in mathematics from the Universität Bielefeld, Bielefeld, Germany, in 1996, and the Dr.-Math. degree in mathematics from the Universität Bielefeld, Bielefeld, Germany, in 1998. He was a Research and Teaching Assistant with the Fakultät für Mathematik, Universität Bielefeld, from 1998 to 2010. From 2011 to 2013 he was project leader of the project ``Sicherheit und Robustheit des Quanten-Repeaters´´ of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research at Fakultät für Mathematik, Universität Bielefeld. In 2014 he was supported by a DFG project at the Institute of Theoretical Information Technology, Technische Universität München. In 2015 he had a temporary professorship at the Fakultät für Mathematik und Informatik, Friedrich-Schiller Universität Jena. He is currently project leader of the project ``Abhörsichere Kommunikation über Quanten-Repeater´´ of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research at Fakultät für Mathematik, Universität Bielefeld. Since 2018 he is at the Department of Communications Engineering at the Technical University of Munich.   Roberto Ferrara have obtained his Msc in physics at the Niels Bohr Institute of the University of Copenhagen and his PhDin science at the Department of Mathematical Sciences of the University of Copenhagen. In his PhD dissertation "An Information-theoretic Framework for Quantum Repeaters", he studied the limitations of distilling bipartite classical key from quantum states when the two parties can only share entanglement with the aid of a third party, the quantum repeater, covering topics of entanglement measures, quantum operations and quantum information theory. Since 2019 he is at the Department of Communications Engineering at the Technical University of Munich.   Frank H. P. Fitzek is a Professor and head of the “Deutsche Telekom Chair of Communication Networks” at TU Dresden coordinating the 5G Lab Germany. He is the spokesman of the DFG Cluster of Excellence CeTI. He received his diploma (Dipl.-Ing.) degree in electrical engineering from the University of Technology – Rheinisch-Westfälische Technische Hochschule (RWTH) – Aachen, Germany, in 1997 and his Ph.D. (Dr.-Ing.) in Electrical E
