QuNetSim is a quantum-enabled network simulator that adds common quantum networking tasks like teleportation, superdense coding, sharing EPR pairs, etc. With QuNetSim, one can design and test robust quantum network protocols under various network conditions.
See https://tqsd.github.io/QuNetSim/ for documentation. To install the latest release via pip:
pip install qunetsim
The QuNetSim pip package comes with a templater. After installing the library, simply type template and follow the instructions. A template QuNetSim example will be generated.
from qunetsim.components import Host, Network
network = Network.get_instance()
network.start()
alice = Host('Alice')
bob = Host('Bob')
alice.add_connection(bob.host_id)
bob.add_connection(alice.host_id)
alice.start()
bob.start()
network.add_hosts([alice, bob])
# Block Alice to wait for qubit arrive from Bob
alice.send_epr(bob.host_id, await_ack=True)
q_alice = alice.get_epr(bob.host_id)
q_bob = bob.get_epr(alice.host_id)
print("EPR is in state: %d, %d" % (q_alice.measure(), q_bob.measure()))
network.stop(True)
