qiskit.providers.models.BackendProperties

class BackendProperties(backend_name, backend_version, last_update_date, qubits, gates, general, **kwargs)

Class representing backend properties

This holds backend properties measured by the provider. All properties which are provided optionally. These properties may describe qubits, gates, or other general propeties of the backend.

Initialize a BackendProperties instance.

• qubits (list) – System qubit parameters as a list of lists of Nduv objects

• gates (list) – System gate parameters as a list of Gate objects

• general (list) – General parameters as a list of Nduv objects
