The Rationale for the Optimal Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution Protocol

This article describes the current technical level of developments in field continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD). Various classifications are described, criteria analyzed, and optimal protocol is selected. The analysis focused around device-dependent schemes with a theoretical emphasis, therefore, detailed device-independent CV-QKD side-channel attacks out scope work. However, latter, one way or another, taken into account when describing possible classifications. choice was carried out, first all, from potential possibility integration existing network telecommunication infrastructures. Predominantly, general classification such that it to draw up specific protocol, depending on task implementation.
