Research on Multi-hop Transmission in Quantum Wireless Communication Networks Based on Improved Ant Colony Algorithm

Published: 16 May 2023 Publication History

Abstract

Firstly, an improved ant colony algorithm (QCANT) is proposed to optimize quantum connectivity, and the entanglement example distribution node deployment in quantum wireless multi-hop networks is studied and analyzed. On this basis, this paper combined genetic algorithm with improved ant colony algorithm (GA-QCANT), which can effectively alleviate the problem of low efficiency of ant colony algorithm due to the lack of initial pheromone. Simulation results show that both QCANT and GA-QCANT improves quantum connectivity significantly, and GA-QCANT improves quantum connectivity by an average of 32.1% compared to QCANT.
