  Quantum networks consist of quantum nodes that are linked by entanglement and
quantum information can be transferred from one node to another. Operations can
be applied to qubits of local nodes coordinated by classical communication to
manipulate quantum states and readout/measurement will be employed to obtain
results. Here, we use quantum circuits to simulate quantum state transfer
between two nodes connected in a linear geometry through other nodes. We
explore the interplay between gate and readout errors on the performance of
state transfer. We find that the nominal success probability is not necessarily
a monotonic function of the two error rates and employ numerical simulations
and analytic tools to understand their interplay.
