Displacement-based simultaneous quantum-classical communications (SQCC) protocols, as originally proposed, are generally incompatible with the majority of useful quantum communication schemes, such as entanglement distribution or repeater-based quantum key distribution: direct measurement of the classical signal also measures and destroys the quantum state, leaving point-to-point Gaussian quantum key distribution as the only quantum communication scheme amenable to integration with SQCC. In this work, we apply the classically-modulated quantum communication protocol proposed by Zaunders and Ralph [arXiv:2606.03181v3] to circumvent this issue and demonstrate the distribution of continuous-variable Gaussian entanglement simultaneously with classical information. We characterise the quality of the distributed entangled state and outline how the scheme is suitable for use in repeater-based networks. Lastly, we compute the secret key generation rate of the Gaussian CMQC scheme in the point-to-point case and compare it to the equivalent point-to-point SQCC protocol.
Gaussian-modulated coherent-state (GMCS) continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD) offers a practical path to quantum-secured communication owing to its compatibility with existing optical fibre networks and use of mature security proofs. Achieving high secret key rates in real-time systems, however, re...

We develop a family of semi-device-independent (SDI) entanglement-assisted prepare-measure (PM) communication games involving two parties, within the n→l random-access code (RAC) framework where the sender Alice holds a n-bit string and communicates l<n bits or qubits to the receiver Bob. In contrast to the standard qu...

Quantum secure direct communication (QSDC) enables the direct transmission of confidential messages without pre-establishing a secret key. Device independence (DI) can further enhance its practical security against untrusted devices. However, existing DI-QSDC protocols rely on a single Clauser–Horne–Shimony–Holt inequa...
This paper is a tutorial-style introduction to methods and protocols for reliable transmission of quantum information over noisy quantum links. The exposition is based on a design philosophy that parallels classical link-layer mechanisms such as forward error correction and Automatic Repeat reQuest (ARQ). It starts by...
