Abstract

The rapid advancements in quantum communication networks have revolutionized the field of information technology, offering unprecedented security and efficiency. This paper explores the latest developments in quantum communication networks, focusing on the integration of quantum key distribution (QKD) and quantum repeaters. Quantum teleportation and quantum entanglement protocols are also discussed as essential components for building scalable and robust quantum networks. The challenges faced in implementing these technologies, such as loss, noise, and distance limitations, are addressed, and potential solutions are proposed. Additionally, the impact of quantum communication networks on future cybersecurity and quantum computing are highlighted. This study provides an overview of the current state-of-the-art in quantum communication networks, emphasizing the potential for transformative applications in various domains.
