Abstract

Quantum communication is a technique in which quantum information is transferred from one place to another. There are several quantum communication protocols, starting from quantum key distribution (QKD). The most popular of them is quantum dialogue (QD), which enables communicants to exchange their secret messages simultaneously. QD can be broadly classified into controller dependent and controller-independent protocols. In this work, we aim to analyze the various characteristics such as the quantum resource, the measurement used, the encoding rules, and the dishonesty of the controller of quantum dialogue protocols. From the analysis of the considered protocols, we have found that the controller-independent QD protocol can be preferred over the controller-dependent protocol.
