"Method for improving quantum repeater rate" was invented by Manish Singh (Chicago) and Supratik Guha (Chicago).
According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "This disclosure is directed to a methods and systems for establishing a long-range quantum link in a quantum communication network and for improving connection rate of the quantum link. The quantum link is established across multiple quantum repeaters relying on quantum entanglement swap operations in the multiple quantum repeaters. The methods and systems use nested connection loops that are started as soon as quantum...
