TLDR

This paper simulates quantum annealing on a semiconducting cQED device for Multiple Hypothesis Tracking, showing promising real-time performance.

Key contributions

  • Explores semiconducting spin cQED quantum processors for MHT via quantum annealing.
  • Evaluates annealer performance on an emulator, incorporating coherent and incoherent errors.
  • Benchmarks the system using two distinct scenarios to assess performance.
  • Estimates cQED-spin processors can achieve a total run time of approximately 50 ms.

Why it matters

This research demonstrates the potential of semiconducting cQED quantum annealers for real-time applications like radar tracking. The estimated 50 ms run time for MHT suggests a significant step towards practical quantum computing for complex optimization problems.

Original Abstract

We explore the expected performance of a semiconducting spin cQED quantum processor for Multiple Hypothesis Tracking (MHT) algorithm via a quantum annealing procedure. From two different benchmarking scenarios we evaluate this type of quantum annealer on a quantum emulator in which we incorporated both dynamical coherent errors and incoherent errors. From estimate of the reset, measurement and annealing time of the processor, we find that cQED-spin processors could reach a total run time of around 50 ms. This makes this technology promising for potential real time application such as radar tracking.
