Abstract
We propose a scheme of controlled entanglement diversion of a bi-partite entangled coherent state using GHZ type entangled coherent state as a resource. The scheme involves only linear optical devices such as phase shifters, beam splitters and photon counters. Average fidelity of diversion is calculated and plotted. It is 2/3 for very small coherent amplitudes and approaches unity for appreciable coherent amplitude.
