Even If we remove qobj supports in arguments, qobj will be still necessary to execute pulse simulation and DASK-based qasm simulation. That is, assemble()
will be internally called in run()
. To generate qobj for pulse, arguments for assemble()
is necessary. For example, verify_wheel.py
executes pulse simulation as follows
qobj = assemble([schedule],
backend=backend_sim,
qubit_lo_freq=[5.0],
meas_level=1,
meas_return='avg',
shots=1)
results = backend_sim.run(qobj, system_model=system_model).result()
Note that pulse simulation requires different arguments for assemble()
and run()
. If we remove qobj supports, the same arguments will be specified and unfortunately pulse simulation doesn't work correctly.
I think that qobj should be removed after unsupport of pulse simulation (https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-aer/issues/1722).
What is the expected behavior?
AerSimulator
should not supportQasmQobj
andPulseQobj
to run simulation.They are deprecated in 0.9.0.
