Quantum wireless network communication based on cluster states

Due to the high security of quantum transmission and the more flexible and economical implementation of wireless communication, quantum wireless network communication attracts lots of attention. Because of the high entanglement persistence and robustness of cluster states against decoherence and loss, we investigate the application of cluster states in quantum wireless network communication (QWNC) and propose several kinds of QWNC schemes based on 1D, 2D and 3D cluster states, respectively. Finally we propose a QWNC scheme under the bilayer quantum network architecture. Comparing with other multi-hop teleportation schemes, it is unnecessary for the intermediate nodes to perform entanglement swapping to establish the required entanglement. The computational complexity is independent of the number of intermediate nodes and cluster states are allocated on demand, thus reducing the computational complexity and resource consumption largely.
