Abstract

AbstractIn quantum information theory, superadditivity in the capacity of a quantum channel occurs as a special property. We present a method of calculating the mutual information analytically for binary linear codes by using square‐root measurement as the decoding process. Many examples of codes showing the existence of superadditivity in capacity have been given in the past, but the scope of the method was not clarified. In the present paper, we show that the method can be applied to any binary linear codes. We also show that the quantum channel capacity is almost fully attained in a finite codeword length by using approximation to simplex code. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
