Improved practical decoy state method in quantum key distribution with parametric down conversion source
– In this paper, a new decoy-state scheme for quantum key distribution with parametric down-conversion source is proposed. We use both three-intensity decoy states and their triggered and nontriggered components to estimate the fraction of single-photon counts and quantum bit-error rate of single-photon, and then deduce a more accurate value of key generation rate. The final key rate over trans...
متن کاملPractical decoy state for quantum key distribution
Decoy states have recently been proposed as a useful method for substantially improving the performance of quantum key distribution QKD . Here, we present a general theory of the decoy state protocol based on only two decoy states and one signal state. We perform optimization on the choice of intensities of the two decoy states and the signal state. Our result shows that a decoy state protocol ...

Qin Wang, Xiang-Bin Wang, and Guang-Can Guo Key Laboratory of Quantum Information, Department of Physics, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei 230026, People’s Republic of China and Department of Physics, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China Abstract We propose a practical decoy state method with heralded single photon source for quantum key distribution (QKD). In the prot...
متن کاملSimple and efficient quantum key distribution with parametric down-conversion.
We propose an efficient quantum key distribution protocol based on the photon-pair generation from parametric down-conversion (PDC). It uses the same experimental setup as the conventional protocol, but a refined data analysis enables detection of photon-number splitting attacks by utilizing information from a built-in decoy state. Assuming the use of practical detectors, we analyze the uncondi...
متن کاملDecoy state quantum key distribution.
There has been much interest in quantum key distribution. Experimentally, quantum key distribution over 150 km of commercial Telecom fibers has been successfully performed. The crucial issue in quantum key distribution is its security. Unfortunately, all recent experiments are, in principle, insecure due to real-life imperfections. Here, we propose a method that can for the first time make most...
