Quantum Communication with Coherent States of Light
Presented by Norbert Lutkenhaus, Institute for Quantum Computing
Quantum Communication Protocols offer either qualitative advantages (Quantum Key Distribution) or quantitative advantages (Quantum Communication Protocols like Quantum Fingerprinting). I will outline the different type of tasks with quantum advantages and address the question how we can realize the quantum advantage by resorting to tools that are readily available for implementation using simple tools like coherent states (laser pulses) and linear optics. Our goal is to drive research towards delivering protocols with a quantitative advantage that can be practically implemented and that address a real-world problem.
