Nonadiabatic holonomic quantum computation has received increasing attention due to its robustness against control errors as well as high-speed realization. Several schemes of its implementation have been put forward based on various physical systems, each of which has some particular merits. In this paper, we put forward an alternative scheme of nonadiabatic holonomic quantum computation, in which a universal set of quantum gates is realized based on Rydberg superatoms. A Rydberg superatom is a mesoscopic atomic ensemble that allows for only a single Rydberg excitation shared by many atoms within a blockade radius and can be used to generate the collective states to encode the qubits. In our scheme, the qubit is encoded into two collective ground states of Rydberg superatoms and the interaction between two long-range Rydberg superatoms is mediated by a microwave cavity with the aid of two additional collective Rydberg states. Different from the previous schemes, which are based on the systems in the microscope scale, the present scheme is based on atomic ensembles in the mesoscopic scale. Besides the common merits of nonadiabatic holonomic quantum computation such as the robustness and the speediness, the Rydberg-superatom-based scheme has the following particular merits: the long coherence time of Rydberg states and the operability of the mesoscopic systems.
