Abstract
En 中文
Quantum networks leverage the principles of quantum mechanics for information transmission and processing, providing attractive functionalities absent in classical networks. Realizing entanglement distribution among network nodes is one of the important tasks in quantum network applications. Meanwhile, as free-space quantum communication technology advances, protocols adaptable to mobile terminal resource allocation become practical. Here, we propose the message-oriented quantum entanglement distribution protocol called quantum stream control transmission protocol (QSCTP) and illustrate its application within the entanglement distribution network. Through prototype network testing, we validate its efficacy in the intended application, offering a promising avenue for the seamless integration of quantum networks and paving the path toward their application.
