Abstract
Quantum entanglement plays a key role in quantum computing. Enormous theoretical progress has been made, but practical implementation of protocols is still blocked by technical obstacles. In standard models, the used circuits require controlled gates and entangled qubits separated by limited distances. As solution, quantum swapping via Zeno dynamics has been proposed. In this paper, we study the case of noisy environments by introducing Werner states as quantum channels. For this purpose, our platform is enriched by a specific class for parametric mixed states processing. The implementation details are presented, and simulation results of the entanglement swapping protocol are given.
