Performance of photon-pair quantum key distribution systems
We analyze the quantitative improvement in performance provided by a novel quantum key distribution (qkd) system that employs a correlated photon source (cps) and a photon-number resolving detector (pnr). Our calculations suggest that given current technology, the cps/pnr implementation offers an improvement of several orders of magnitude in secure bit rate over previously described implementat...
متن کاملSubcarrier Domain of Multicarrier Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution
We propose the subcarrier domain of multicarrier continuous-variable (CV) quantum key distribution (QKD). In a multicarrier CVQKD scheme, the information is granulated into Gaussian subcarrier CVs and the physical Gaussian link is divided into Gaussian subchannels. The sub-channels are dedicated for the conveying of the subcarrier CVs. The angular domain utilizes the phase-space angles of the G...
متن کاملIndoor RF signal distribution using a coherence multiplexed/subcarrier multiplexed optical transmission system
Abstract— A Radio over Fiber (RoF) distribution network based on single-mode fiber (SMF) and a combination of coherence multiplexing (CM) and subcarrier multiplexing (SCM) is proposed. CM is a relatively unknown and potentially inexpensive form of photonic code-division multiplexing, and is used here as a means to distinguish between the radio access points (RAPs). Two alternative CM network to...

متن کاملHigh-speed photon counting techniques for broadband quantum key distribution
Quantum Cryptography has demonstrated the potential for ultra-secure communications. However, with quantumchannel transmission rates in the MHz range, typical link losses and signal-to-noise ratios have resulted in keyproduction rates that are impractical for continuous one-time-pad encryption of high-bandwidth communications. We have developed high-speed data handling electronics that support ...
