Abstract

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