Scaling of Entanglement-Assisted Communication in Amplified Fiber Links
Abstract: Quantum information processing technology offers several communication strategies, which offer capacity advantages over classical technologies. However, advantages typically arise only in very particular communication scenarios which are of limited use in public networks. Most importantly, striking capacity advantages have so far been found only for cases where the system capacity is way below commercially interesting values. In this work we present a novel scenario where pre-shared entanglement offers arbitrarily high capacity advantages, and where at the same time data rates are compatible with future network demand. Our approach rests on the observation that the number of modes in multi-mode fiber can be increased solely by tuning of the refractive index, while maintaining the fiber diameter.
