Polarization-basis tracking scheme for quantum key distribution using revealed sifted key bits.
The calibration of the polarization basis between the transmitter and receiver is an important task in quantum key distribution. A continuously working polarization-basis tracking scheme (PBTS) will effectively promote the efficiency of the system and reduce the potential security risk when switching between the transmission and calibration modes. Here, we proposed a single-photon level continu...
متن کاملCV-MDI quantum key distribution via satellite
In this work we analyze a measurement-deviceindependent (MDI) protocol to establish continuous-variable (CV) quantum key distribution (QKD) between two ground stations. We assume communication occurs between the ground stations via satellite over two independent atmospheric-fading channels dominated by turbulence-induced beam wander. In this MDI protocol the measurement device is the satellite ...
متن کاملQuantum key distribution with blind polarization bases.
We propose a new quantum key distribution scheme that uses the blind polarization basis. In our scheme the sender and the receiver share key information by exchanging qubits with arbitrary polarization angles without basis reconciliation. As only random polarizations are transmitted, our protocol is secure even when a key is embedded in a not-so-weak coherent-state pulse. We show its security a...
متن کاملQuantum Key Distribution Using Three Basis States
This note presents a method of public key distribution using quantum communication of n photons that simultaneously provides a high probability that the bits have not been tampered. It is a three-state variant of the quantum method of Bennett and Brassard (BB) where the detector also has three states. It provides superior performance (in terms of the number of usable key bits) for n < 18m, wher...
متن کاملPolarization recovery and auto-compensation in Quantum Key Distribution network
A Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) network can allow multi-user communication via secure key. Moreover, by actively switching communication nodes, one can achieve high key transmission rate for the selected nodes. However, the polarization properties of different fiber path are different and these properties also randomly drift over time. Therefore, polarization recovery after the switching and a...
