An Ultimate Benchmark for the Optimal Performance of Quantum Communication Network Using Multi Path Routing Protocol

In recent years, quantum communication networks have emerged as a promising alternative to classical communication networks for the transmission of quantum information. One of the challenges for achieving optimal performance in quantum communication networks is the efficient routing of quantum signals across multiple paths. To address this, a variety of routing protocols have been proposed, including multi-path routing protocols. Multi-path routing involves sending a quantum signal through multiple distinct paths simultaneously to reduce delays in the transmission of quantum information. By distributing the quantum information over multiple paths, this approach can provide significant performance improvements, including reduced latency and higher throughput. In addition, multi-path routing can enable new possibilities for the security of quantum communication networks, such as more secure entanglement swapping protocols and improved protection against eavesdropping. In this paper, we investigate the performance of multi-path routing protocols in multi-node quantum communication networks. We consider two approaches to multi-path routing, a basic routing approach based on shortest path optimization, and a more advanced approach based on graph partitions. We evaluate the performance of these protocols in a range of multi-node networks, with focus on the trade-off between latency and throughput. The results show that multi-path routing yields significant performance improvements in such networks and provides an efficient way for routing quantum signals across multiple paths.
