Quantum Information Learning - QuaIL

Free-space optical communication technology uses light propagating in free space to wirelessly transmit data for telecommunications or computer networking. The EU-funded QuaIL project will investigate how to build a complex decoder for long-distance communication in free space by combining optical gates, photodetectors and quantum neural networks. It will also explore how machine learning can benefit quantum technology. This is an emerging interdisciplinary research area that has not yet seen widespread commercial applications. The ultimate aim is to develop systems that will enable high data rates between Earth and Space.
