Ambitions for the next generation of wireless communication include high data rates, low latency, ubiquitous access, ensuring sustainability (in terms of consumption of energy and natural resources), all while maintaining a reasonable level of implementation complexity. Achieving these goals necessitates reforms in cellular networks, specifically in the physical layer and antenna design.

Classical coding theory contains several techniques to obtain new codes from other codes, including puncturing and shortening. Both of these techniques have been generalized to quantum codes. Restricting to stabilizer codes, this paper introduces more freedom in the choice of the encoded states after puncturing. Furthermore, we also give an explicit description of the stabilizers for the punctured code.

Subject to the laws of classical physics -the science that governs the design of todays wireless communication systems -there is no need to match the radiation impedance of a receiver antenna to the impedance of the front-end electronics in order to effect communications. If we dispense with a transmission line and, instead, make the front-end electronics colocated with the antenna, then a high input-impedance preamplifier can measure the open-circuit voltage directly on the antenna port while drawing negligible
