چکیده
Untrusted node networks initially implemented by measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (MDI-QKD) protocol are a crucial step on the roadmap of Internet. Considering extensive QKD implementations trusted networks, workable upgrading tactic existing toward MDI needs to be explicit. Here, referring nonstandalone (NSA) network 5G, we propose an NSA-MDI scheme as evolutionary selection for phase-encoding BB84 networks. Our solution can upgrade and terminals that employ various schemes immediately support without hardware changes. This cost-effective effectively promotes deployment untrusted while taking full advantage In addition, diversified demands security bandwidth satisfied, survivability is improved.

Experimental measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution.
Quantum key distribution is proven to offer unconditional security in communication between two remote users with ideal source and detection. Unfortunately, ideal devices never exist in practice and device imperfections have become the targets of various attacks. By developing up-conversion single-photon detectors with high efficiency and low noise, we faithfully demonstrate the measurement-dev...
متن کاملFinite-key analysis for measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution.
Quantum key distribution promises unconditionally secure communications. However, as practical devices tend to deviate from their specifications, the security of some practical systems is no longer valid. In particular, an adversary can exploit imperfect detectors to learn a large part of the secret key, even though the security proof claims otherwise. Recently, a practical approach--measuremen...
متن کاملDevice-independent quantum key distribution
Quantum key distribution allows two parties connected by a quantum channel to establish a secret key that is unknown to any unauthorized third party. The secrecy of this key is based on the laws of quantum physics. For security, however, it is crucial that the honest parties are able to control their physical devices accurately and completely. The goal of device-independent quantum key distribu...
متن کاملPractical aspects of measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution
A novel protocol, measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (MDI-QKD), removes all attacks from the detection system, the most vulnerable part in QKD implementations. In this paper, we present an analysis for practical aspects of MDI-QKD. To evaluate its performance, we study various error sources by developing a general system model. We find that MDI-QKD is highly practical and t...
