Two U.S. Army research projects advance quantum networking, which will likely play a key role in future battlefield operations. Quantum networks will potentially deliver multiple novel capabilities not achievable with classical networks, one of which is secure quantum communication. In quantum communication protocols, information is typically sent through entangled photon particles. It is nearly impossible to eavesdrop on quantum communication, and those who try leave evidence of their tampering; however, […] Two U.S. Army research projects at the University of Chicago advance quantum networking, which will play a key role in future battlefield operations.
