• Abstract: We study the problem of joint communication and detection of wiretapping on an optical fiber from a quantum perspective. Our system model describes a communication link that is capable of transmitting data under normal operating conditions and raising a warning at the transmitter side in case of eavesdropping. It contributes to a unified modelling approach, based on which established quantum communication paradigms like quantum key distribution can be compared to other approaches offering similar functionality.

• Joint Communication and Sensing with Bipartite Entanglement over Bosonic Channels [8.444687277893829]
  We consider a joint communication and sensing problem in an optical link in which a low-power transmitter attempts to communicate with a receiver while simultaneously identifying the range of a defect creating a backscattered signal. Motivated by the envisioned deployment of entanglement sharing quantum networks, we allow the transmitter to exploit entanglement to assist its sensing and communication. Our main result is a characterization of the trade-offs incurred in the form of an achievable rate/error-exponent region which can beat time-sharing in certain cases.

  We leverage an importance map to distill critical semantic information, introducing a cooperative perception semantic communication framework. To counter the challenges posed by time-varying multipath fading, our approach incorporates the use of frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) along with channel estimation and equalization strategies. We introduce a novel semantic error detection method that is integrated with our semantic communication framework in the spirit of hybrid automatic repeated request (HARQ)

We propose a domain-informed neural network (NN) design that is able to improve upon both "off-the-shelf" NNs and classical detection and interference rejection methods.

For every quantum channel $T$ and every $eps>0$ there exists a threshold $p(epsilon,T)$ for the gate error probability below which rates larger than $C-epsilon$ are fault-tolerantly achievable. Our results are relevant in communication over large distances, and also on-chip, where distant parts of a quantum computer might need to communicate under higher levels of noise.
