Abstract
We propose an error correction coding algorithm for continuous quantum variables. We use this algorithm to construct a highly efficient 5-wa ve-packet code which can correct arbitrary single wave-packet errors. We show that this class of continuous variable codes is robust against imprecision in the error syndromes. A potential implementation of the scheme is presented.
