Superdense coding is a quantum communication protocol that allows two parties to send more information than classical methods would permit by using entangled quantum states. This process leverages the unique properties of quantum bits (qubits) to transmit two classical bits of information by sending just one qubit, thus maximizing the efficiency of data transmission. This capability is particularly relevant in scenarios where fast and efficient communication is essential, as it enhances the potential for effective information transfer.
congrats on reading the definition of superdense coding. now let's actually learn it.
