Two-Dimensional Beam Selection by Multiarmed Bandit Algorithm Based on a Quantum Walk

Abstract: This article proposes a novel beam selection method using a multiarmed bandit (MAB) algorithm based on a quantum walk (QW) principle, aimed at improving system performance. A massive multiple-input multiple-output system, employing multiple high-gain beams within a high-frequency band, is indispensable for achieving large capacity in future wireless communications. However, as the number of […]

Continuous-Variable Quantum Secret Sharing in Fast-Fluctuating Channels

Recently, several continuous-variable quantum secret sharing (CV-QSS) protocols were proposed, while most of them are limited to the fiber channel systems with a relatively stable transmissivity. However, by means of complex channels, the transmissivity fluctuates dramatically in time with a probability distribution, which will lead to a fast-fluctuating attack. Therefore, the security analysis of CV-QSS […]

One-Dimensional Lazy Quantum Walk in Ternary System

Quantum walks play an important role for developing quantum algorithms and quantum simulations. Here, we introduce a first of its kind one-dimensional lazy quantum walk in the ternary quantum domain and show its equivalence for circuit realization in ternary quantum logic. Using an appropriate logical mapping of the position space on which a walker evolves […]
