Description
A concatenated code whose outer code is a bosonic code. In other words, a bosonic code that can be thought of as a concatenation of a possibly non-bosonic inner code and another bosonic outer code.Decoding
Decoder exploiting analog information from the outer code for bosonic codes concatenated with qubit QLDPC codes [1].Cousins
- Coherent-state constellation code— Coherent-state constellation codes consisting of points from a Gaussian quadrature rule can be concatenated with quantum polar codes to achieve the Gaussian coherent information of the thermal noise channel [2,3].
- Dual-rail quantum code— The KLM protocol, one of the first protocols for fault-tolerant quantum computation, utilizes concatenations of the dual-rail code with a stabilizer code such as the Steane code [4–6]. Concatenating the dual-rail code with an \([[n,k,d]]\) stabilizer code yields an \([[2n,k,d]]\) constant-excitation code [7] that protects against \(d-1\) AD errors [8]. Concatenating the outer dual-rail code with an inner single-mode bosonic code yields several gates that are independent of the inner code [9].
- Two-mode binomial code— Two-mode binomial codes can be concatenated with repetition codes to yield bosonic analogues of QPCs [10].
- Hybrid cat code— Hybrid cat codes can be concatenated with RBH codes [11].
