Abstract
An optical scheme for the error-free transfer of quantum information through a noisy quantum channel is proposed. The scheme is inspired by quantum error-correction schemes, but it avoids the currently unfeasible requirement for a controlled-NOT operation between single photons. The quantum communication scheme presented here rejects bit-flip errors instead of correcting them and combines quantum-measurement properties of three-particle entangled states with properties of the quantum teleportation protocol.
