Apologizing Comment on `Quantum Quasi-Cyclic Low-Density Parity-Check codes\,"

In our recent paper entitled "Quantum Quasi-Cyclic Low-Density Parity-Check codes" [ICIC 2009. LNCS 5754], it was claimed that some new quantum codes can be constructed via the CSS encoding/decoding approach with various lengths and rates. However, the further investigation shows that the proposed construction may steal some ideas from the paper entitled "Quantum Quasi-Cyclic LDPC codes" [quant-ph/0701020v2]. We feel that the apologizing point of the original protocol is that some results are almost similar to that of construction methods with algebraic combinatorics although we suggest the different approach for improving them. Also, there is a weak point of the original coding approach while considering the application of codes in imperfect channels.
