Abstract
Quantum communication offers unparalleled reliability and efficiency, making it a promising solution for high-quality media transmission. To explore this potential, we propose a quantum communication system for image transmission, addressing the challenges of transmitting high-quality image data over error-prone channels. A crucial aspect of advancing this field is quantum channel coding, specific to quantum systems. Therefore, this research evaluates the performance of low-complex three-qubit quantum error correction code for image transmission over noisy channels. JPEG and HEIF images are encoded using three-qubit error correction method and compared to 1/3 rate polar codes with equivalent bandwidth. Results show that the three-qubit error correction code significantly outperforms advanced classical polar codes in both classical and quantum domains, achieving a maximum PSNR of 64.5 dB (SSIM = 0.9997) in HEIF and 58.3 dB (SSIM = 0.9994) in JPEG. These findings underscore its potential as a robust solution for quantum communication in media transmission.
