Problems solved by technology

However, the four-phase scanning method needs to scan the interference curve at Bob's end four times, which increases the time and complexity of phase scanning, and requires Bob to transmit the scanning results to Alice through a public channel, so that Eve can obtain the information of the phase scanning. Remapping attacks or side-channel attacks offer the possibility of causing related security issues

Abstract

The invention discloses an active phase compensation method and device of joint scan. A middle ring is added at an Alice end, the middle ring respectively interferes and scans a ring of the Alice end and a ring of a Bob end to respectively obtain the interference curve of the Alice end and the interference curve of the Bob end, so that the phase drift parameter of a phase modulator is obtained, and then active phase compensation is respectively conducted to the Alice end and the Bob end. In the active phase compensation method and device of the joint scan, the Alice end and the Bob end only need to be scanned once, scanning time is shortened, and the safety of a system is improved. The active phase compensation method and device further shortens the time of phase scanning, lowers the complexity of phase scanning, and is used for achieving independent scanning of the Alice end and the Bob end and avoiding phase remapping attack or side channel attack.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of quantum key distribution, and more specifically, to an active phase compensation method and device for joint scanning. Background technique [0002] Phase drift is an inherent problem in phase-encoded quantum key distribution (QKD) systems, and is one of the important factors affecting the practical performance of QKD systems. Compensation scheme for single-phase scanning active phase: Assume that the voltage applied to the phase modulator at Alice's end and the modulated phase are linear, so that only the interference curve at Bob's end is scanned. In actual devices, the voltage loaded by the phase modulator and the modulated phase are not linear, so an active phase compensation scheme of four-phase scanning method is proposed. However, the four-phase scanning method needs to scan the interference curve at Bob's end four times, which increases the time and complexity of phase scanning, and requires Bob to...
