Abstract – In this paper, the effect of applied electric field on the damage due to partial discharges activity into the surroundings dielectrics of a narrow channel encapsulated within the volume of a dielectric material is evaluated using a kinetic model based on Particle in Cell - Monte Carlo Collision (PIC-MCC) model. After application of an electric field across a dielectric material which...

We provide a quantum key distribution protocol based on the correlations of the Greenburger-Horne-Zeilinger(GHZ) state. No classical communication is needed in the process of the establishment of the key. Our protocol is useful when an unjammable classical communication channel is unavailable. We prove that the protocol is secure.

In this work there are studied the conditions for the effective quantum communications between a terminal on Earth and the other onboard of an orbiter. The quantum key distribution between a LEO satellite and a ground station is studied in particular. The effect of the propagation over long distances as well as the background during day or night is modeled, compared and discussed in the context...

The use of decoy states enhances the performance of practical quantum key distribution systems significantly by monitoring the quantum channel in a more detailed way. While active modulation of the intensity of the pulses is an effective way of preparing decoy states in principle, in practice passive preparation might be desirable in some scenarios. Known passive methods involve parametric down...

In an electronic voting protocol, a distributed scheme can be used for forbidding the malicious acts of the voting administrator and the counter during the election, but it cannot prevent them from collaborating to trace the ballots and destroy their privacy after the election. We present a distributed anonymous quantum key distribution scheme and further construct a distributed quantum electio...

Quantum Key Distribution (Q.K.D.) provides us a protected communication channel. In present days we have some latest problems existing in Quantum key distribution. Let us look in to the Quantum key distribution Research analysis which provides us the Information about BB84 Protocol, using reducing laser light is used as a Photon Source, Protected keys could not be generated. The reason is it’s ...

The spectral efficiency (channel capacity) of the optical direct-detection channel is studied. The modeling of the optical direct-detection channel as a discrete-time Poisson channel is reviewed. Closed-form integral representations for the entropy of random variables with Poisson and negative binomial distributions are derived. The spectral efficiency achievable with an arbitrary input gamma d...

We introduce a family of QKD protocols for distributing shared random keys within a network of n users. The advantage of these protocols is that any possible key structure needed within the network, including broadcast keys shared among subsets of users, can be implemented by using a particular multi-partite high-dimensional quantum state. This approach is more efficient in the number of quantu...

The remarkably long-standing problem of cryptography is to generate absolutely secure key over communication channel. It is widely believed that the task cannot be achieved by classical cryptography. To solve this problem quantum key distribution has been developed over the last two decades. Here we present an incredibly simple classical cryptosystem which can generate absolutely secure key. Th...
