Abstract

Bridging the gap between classical and quantum communication is a well sought-after topic with significant potential in fortifying the networks of the future. In that direction, we have attempted to analyse realistic quantum channels through the lens of classical communication frameworks. To achieve this, we have developed a simulation environment that integrates classical link-level simulator with a quantum simulator, allowing an in-depth assessment of quantum noise impacts on 5G-compliant error correction code (ECC). We focused on the performance of low density parity check (LDPC) codes and polar codes under the influence of these quantum models. The comparative analysis, primarily on bit error rate (BER) performance demonstrates a clear advantage for LDPC codes across both quantum channel under identical simulation conditions. The results of this study offer valuable insights into how classical ECC perspectives can be applied to quantum channels, guiding the selection of appropriate error correction schemes tailored to specific quantum channel models.
