Any two users, Alice and Bob, can communicate with each other in a quantum network, even though there is no direct quantum channel between them. The trust center, Trent, who provides a quantum channel to link them by performing entanglement swapping, cannot eavesdrop on their communication. This protocol provides a high channel capacity because it uses hyperentanglement, which can be generated using a beta barium borate crystal.展开更多

The network system is composed of a communication center,N users,and N quantum lines linking the center and the N users.There is no quantum line among users,and therefore only N quantum lines are necessary for communication between users.Using one χ-type entangled state, in this protocol we are able to send two bits of information through direct communication and,at the same time,share two bits of quantum keys. The security of the protocol is then analyzed.展开更多
