Optimizing Qubit Mapping with Quasi-Orthogonal Space-Time Block Codes and Quaternion Orthogonal Designs

This study explores the qubit mapping through the integration of Quasi-Orthogonal Space-Time Block Codes (QOSTBCs) with Quaternion Orthogonal Designs (QODs) in quantum error correction (QEC) frameworks. QOSTBCs have gained prominence for enhancing performance and reliability in quantum computing and communication systems. These codes draw on stabilizer group formalism and QODs to boost error correction, with QOSTBCs mapping logical qubits to physical ones, refines error handling in complex channels environments. Simulations results demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach by comparing the percentage improvement under various detected and corrected error conditions for four different cases, Z₁ up to Z₄. The obtained simulations and implemental results show that QOSTBCs consistently achieve a higher correction improvement percentage than stabilizer Group for Z₁, Z₂, and Z₄; QOSTBCs can correct more errors than those detected, achieving over 100% correction rates for first two cases, which indicates their enhanced resilience and redundancy in high-error environments. While for Z₃, stabilizer consistently remains above that of QOSTBCs, reflecting its slightly better performance. These outcomes indicate that QOSTBCs are reliable in making better logarithmic efficiency and error resilience, making them a valuable asset for quantum information processing and advanced wireless communication.
