论文摘要
近年来，随着量子信息和技术的快速开发，量子互联网的构建用于互连各种量子设备，例如量子处理器和传感器，将是实用量子应用的下一个趋势。在本文中，我们提出了通过考虑混凝土量子中继器（QR）节点来构建面向连接和无连接量子网络的协议。首先考虑了四类QRS网络，并在链路层中使用两种类型的协议设计，即同时和一对一的链接。基于这两个链接模型，为所有类别的QRS网络提供了面向连接的协议，并且仅通过一对一链接就为第一，第二和第三类QRS网络提出了无连接协议。此外，我们引入了一种新的量子网络的混合连接模型，结合了以连接为导向和无连接的实际用途。我们的工作是研究不同类型的QR网络的网络层模型的新尝试，并为开发通用大型量子互联网的协议堆栈铺平了道路。
With the rapid development of quantum information and technology in recent years, the construction of quantum internet for interconnecting all kinds of quantum devices, such as quantum processors and sensors, will be the next trend for practical quantum applications. In this paper, we propose the protocols for construction of connection-oriented and connectionless quantum networks by considering the concrete quantum repeater (QR) nodes. Four classes of QRs networks are considered first and designed with two types of protocols in link layer, i.e. simultaneous and one-by-one link. Based on those two link models, the connection-oriented protocol is presented for all classes of QRs networks and the connectionless protocol is proposed for the first, second and third classes QRs networks by only one-by-one link. Furthermore, we introduce a new hybrid connection model of quantum networks combined with connection-oriented and connectionless for practical uses. Our work is a new attempt to study the model of the network layer for different kinds of QR networks and paves the way for developing the protocol stack of universal large-scale quantum internet.
