近年来，在技术日新月异的世界中，对超可靠、更快、低功耗和安全通信的需求显着上升。研究人员对新兴的量子计算（QC）表现出极大的兴趣，因为它具有以稳健且高效的方式解决计算复杂性的潜力。预计质量控制可以作为关键的推动者和强大的催化剂，大大降低计算复杂性，并在安全性方面促进第六代 (6G) 及其他通信系统的未来。在这项研究中，介绍了质量控制的基础知识、涵盖广泛技术和应用的量子通信的演变以及量子密钥分发（量子安全最有前途的应用之一）。此外，还研究了各种参数和重要技术，以优化6G通信在安全性、计算和通信效率方面的性能。最后，重点介绍了量子通信和量子通信在 6G 中可能面临的潜在挑战以及未来的发展方向。本文介绍了量子技术将如何赋能未来 6G，以及该领域未来的研究方向是什么。
In the technologically changing world, the demand for ultra-reliable, faster, low power, and secure communication has significantly risen in recent years. Researchers have shown immense interest in emerging quantum computing (QC) due to its potentials of solving the computing complexity in the robust and efficient manner. It is envisioned that QC can act as critical enablers and strong catalysts to considerably reduce the computing complexities and boost the future of sixth generation (6G) and beyond communication systems in terms of their security. In this study, the fundamentals of QC, the evolution of quantum communication that encompasses a wide spectrum of technologies and applications and quantum key distribution, which is one of the most promising applications of quantum security, have been presented. Furthermore, various parameters and important techniques are also investigated to optimise the performance of 6G communication in terms of their security, computing, and communication efficiency. Towards the end, potential challenges that QC and quantum communication may face in 6G have been highlighted along with future directions.The paper presents how quantum technologies will enable future 6G and what are the future research directions in this area.image
