QUANTUM WRAPPER NETWORKING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18248931 titled 'QUANTUM WRAPPER NETWORKING
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system and method for transmitting quantum datagrams over a network.
- Quantum datagrams consist of a wrapper and a quantum data payload.
- The wrapper contains classical non-quantum optical bits, while the quantum data payload contains quantum bits (qubits).
- The system separates the wrapper from the quantum data payload to process the classical bits without disturbing the qubits.
- Based on the processed wrapper, the system makes a forwarding decision for the quantum datagram.
- This innovation enables the transportation of quantum datagrams over a network while preserving the integrity of the quantum data payload.
Original Abstract Submitted
One embodiment provides a system and method for transporting quantum datagrams over a network. During operation, a quantum datagram is obtained at a network node. The quantum datagram can include a wrapper and an optical quantum data payload, with the wrapper comprising classical non-quantum optical bits and the quantum data payload comprising quantum bits (qubits). The system separates the wrapper from the quantum data payload such that the classical bits included in the wrapper are processed while the qubits included in the quantum data payload remain undisturbed, and makes a forwarding decision for the quantum datagram based on the processed wrapper.
