Noisy quantum simulator backend implementing realistic quantum computing device simulation with comprehensive noise modeling.
This backend provides local simulation of quantum devices with noise using the domain layer's quantum state and circuit functionality. It serves as both a reference implementation and testing backend for quantum algorithms under realistic noise conditions.
The simulator can be initialized with a device map or with max-qubits
This simulator models various types of quantum noise including:
The noise model can be configured with parameters such as T1 and T2 times, gate operation times, and noise strengths. It supports advanced noise configurations including correlated readout errors and coherent errors with specific rotation angles and axes. The simulator applies noise during gate operations and measurements, simulating realistic quantum device behavior.
The noise model map has the following structure:
{:gate-noise {
:h {:noise-type :depolarizing :noise-strength 0.01}
:x {:noise-type :amplitude-damping :noise-strength 0.02}
:cnot {:noise-type :phase-damping :noise-strength 0.03}
...}
:readout-error {:prob-0-to-1 0.05 :prob-1-to-0 0.02}}
Note: The simulator currently doesn't model crosstalk between qubits.
The simulator supports asynchronous job management, allowing users to submit circuits and retrieve results later. It can be used for testing algorithms, circuit designs, and quantum operations without requiring access to actual quantum hardware.
It also implements the CloudQuantumBackend protocol for mock cloud backend functionality, allowing it to be used in a cloud-like environment for testing purposes.
