Protected Quantum Teleportation Through Noisy Channel by Weak Measurement and Environment-Assisted Measurement

Abstract

Quantum teleportation as a key protocol for quantum communication and quantum computing demonstrates the stark difference between quantum and classical information transmission. An ideal teleportation protocol requires pure maximally entangled state as the teleportation channel, while in real implementations the shared entanglement is severely degraded due to decoherence. In this letter, we propose a scheme to protect the quantum teleportation from decoherence by means of environment assisted measurement with weak measurements and flip operations. We show that the teleportation fidelity of our proposed scheme is significantly improved compared to teleportation with no protection and a teleportation protocol based on quantum measurement reversal. Also, the explicit formula of average teleportation fidelity and success probability of the entanglement protection are derived.
