Got it, thanks for the explanation.
Also, not to get ahead of ourselves (understanding this is research), but what is the use/benefit of this method? We can already send and receive information over great distances with and without wires at seemingly high speeds. Is this a new level of speed? Are there some previous limitations of distances that are now surmountable? Is the power or cost envelope required somehow reduced in some obvious way (not today, but in some future commercial implementation)?
- terminalcommand 6y agoMaybe it may be useful for achieving truly one-way communication? Could it also be a stepping stone for transmitting state-heavy data? For example a human being with a consciousness :).
- CreepGin 6y agoI think you missed his remarks: > The receiver does not know that a message has been sent until the first person contacts them classically. It's a common mistake to think that quantum teleportation is a new way of sending information. It's really a way to use classical communication in order to leverage entanglement to bypass various limitations of quantum mechanics.
- edge17 6y agoI meant more like, wireless and fiber are both classical ways to send data but each clearly has a benefit. In the same vein, does this new method have some clear benefit?
