Quantum Computing and its Impact on Telecommunications

Abstract

Franco AdelaI*

Quantum computing represents a transformative leap in computational technology, with the potential to revolutionize many fields, including telecommunications. By leveraging the principles of quantum mechanics, quantum computers promise to solve complex problems far beyond the reach of classical computers. This article explores how quantum computing might impact telecommunications, detailing its potential benefits and challenges. At its core, quantum computing harnesses the power of quantum bits or qubits, which can exist in multiple states simultaneously due to a property known as superposition. Unlike classical bits, which are either 0 or 1, qubits can represent both 0 and 1 at the same time. This ability to process vast amounts of information concurrently enables quantum computers to perform certain calculations exponentially faster than their classical counterparts. Quantum entanglement, another fundamental principle, allows qubits that are entangled to instantly affect each other, regardless of distance. These principles position quantum computing as a game-changer in various applications, including telecommunications.
