An one-time-pad key communication protocol with entanglement
نویسنده
چکیده
We present an one-time-pad key communication protocol that allows secure direct communication with entanglement. Alice can send message to Bob in a deterministic manner by using local measurements and public communication. The theoretical efficiency of this protocol is double compared with BB84 protocol. We show this protocol is unconditional secure under arbitrary quantum attack. And we discuss that this protocol can be perfectly implemented with current technologies.

Security of quantum key distribution protocol with two-way classical communication assisted by one-time pad encryption
In this paper, we consider a quantum key distribution protocol (QKD) with twoway classical communication that is assisted by one-time pad encryption. We propose a two-way preprocessing that uses one-time pad encryption by previously shared secret key, and the net key rate of the QKD with proposed preprocessing exceeds the key rate of the QKD without it. The preprocessing is reduced to the entan...
متن کامل6.453 Quantum Optical Communication Reading 16
In this lecture we will examine the first commercial application of quantum optical communication: quantum cryptography. We’ll start with a purely classical case, and show that a one-time pad provides totally secure digital communication. The difficulty of creating a shared one-time pad between remote sites will then lead us into quantum cryptography, or, more properly, quantum key distribution...
متن کاملEntanglement-based quantum key distribution without an entangled-photon source
Quantum key distribution ~QKD! has been studied extensively as a means to realize unconditionally secure communication systems. Two legal parties ~Alice and Bob! create a secret key, security of which against eavesdropping is guaranteed by the law of quantum mechanics, and use it as a one-time pad for encrypting messages. Following the first proposal that used four nonorthogonal states @Benneet...
متن کاملQuantum vernam cipher
We discuss aspects of secure quantum communication by proposing and analyzing a quantum analog of the Vernam cipher (one-time-pad). The quantum Vernam cipher uses entanglement as the key to encrypt quantum information sent through an insecure quantum channel. First, in sharp contrast with the classical Vernam cipher, the quantum key can be recycled securely. We show that key recycling is intrin...
متن کاملCarving Secret Messages out of Public Information
Corresponding Author: Naya Nagy Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada Email: [email protected] Abstract: This study shows that secret information can be shared or passed from a sender to a receiver even if not encoded in a secret message. In the protocol designed in this study, no parts of the original secret information ever travel via communication channels between the source and th...
