Summary:In this paper, we propose a deterministic quantum communication protocol using weak coherent states and pulsed homodyne detection. In this protocol, the communication parties exchange their secret information deterministicaJly in two rounds. The devices and efficiency of the protocol are discussed respectively. We also show the security of the protocol against intercept-resend and Trojan-Horse eavesdropping attacks.
