Abstract

We use the concept of coupled quantum harmonic oscillators to model the propagation environment in which a quantum link carrying either classical or quantum information operates. Using the analogy between the paraxial optical wave equation and the stationary Schrodinger equation and applying the Caldirola-Kanai Hamiltonian for solving the time-dependent Schrodinger equation; we calculate the propagation field strength and the corresponding average received signal energy.
