Abstract
An upper limit is given to the amount of quantum information that can be transmitted reliably down a noisy, decoherent quantum channel using the high-probability states of quantum sources. A class of quantum error-correcting codes is presented that allows the information transmitted to attain this limit. The result is a quantum analog of Shannon's bound and code for the noisy classical channel [C. E. Shannon and W. Weaver, The Mathematical Theory of Communication (University of Illinois Press, Chicago, 1948)].
