Quantum noise simulation: A software module for QuCirDET

An autonomous software module for the estimation of quantum circuit noise is preseneted. Quantum noise is stochastically generated in quantum systems as decoherence, or during gate operations. The simulation is allowed for a single data block made of qubits. A simple quantum error correction protocol runs with a selected quantum error correction code and the module estimates the probability that the code will fail to work under particular noise regimes. The error correction protocol is described and the estimation method is analysed. The adopted module is integrated into QuCirDET maintaining its independence from the interface. The design tool can be used to create and test decoding schemes under different quantum codes.
