Abstract

In this paper a new authenticated quantum protocol aiming to establish a controlled secure direct communication based on five-particle Brown states is proposed. In comparison with previous ones, higher amount of quantum channel capacity is spent for transferring secret information. The controller takes the responsibility of communication after authenticating its identity to parties of communication and keeps its supervision task till end phase of transferring information. The bidirectional authentication method along with eavesdropping check, uses the pre-transmitted identification and hash. The classical XOR operator is used for preventing from eavesdropping by dishonest ones.
