Abstract

We propose a quantum secure direct communication protocol with a controller, who assists the agent gets the secret messages sent from the dealer. Single photons are used to carry dealer’s message, so the cost of our protocol is less than others use entangled qubits. If any eavesdropper tries to steal dealer’s messages, the lawful participants will perceive it and abort their transmission.
