Quantum data compression is of great significance to both quantum computation and quantum communication due to the limited resources for quantum storage. Here in this study, we present an efficient multi‐qubit quantum data compression protocol in which N identically prepared qubits can be perfectly compressed into log2(N+1) qubits. Moreover, the feasible implementation of the quantum data compression is also designed based on the IBM Quantum Experience. The experiment reveals efficient information compression performance using the current scheme. We believe this method might be useful in quantum information which one could make the encoding of information on the qubits more efficiently, and also reducing the resources consumption for quantum storage.

The concept of quantum secure direct communication (QSDC) is to distribute secure message directly between distant users securely, which is an important branch of quantum information science. The purpose of QSDC is to investigate the large capacity of quantum channels and fast speed of information transmission. However, the fidelity of qubits and the efficiency of QSDC will inevitably be affected by the channel noise and the decoherence of the quantum system. In this work, we focus on the performance of QSDC under different noisy channels, and investigate the evolution of quantum states. By numerically studying the performance for two QSDC protocols, we show the efficiency of information transmission over different noisy channel models.
