Problems solved by technology

If the BB84 protocol in the related art is used, the error rate of the single-photon component can only be estimated according to the worst case, that is, all errors of the key obtained by the transmitting end and the receiving end are considered to occur in the single-photon component, resulting in Greatly overestimate the error rate of single photon components, thus greatly reducing the farthest transmission distance of the QKD (Quantum Key Distribution, quantum key distribution) system

Abstract

The invention discloses a decoy-state quantum key distribution (QKD) system based on a discrete random phase. The decoy-state quantum key distribution system comprises a light source which adopts a coherent light source, a first phase regulator used for regulating n (n is a positive integer) discrete random coherent-state phase information alpha for encoding, and a QKD encoder used for QKD encoding. According to the distribution system disclosed by the embodiment of the invention, the coherent light source is adopted and the phase regulator is used for regulating the n discrete random coherent-state phase information alpha for QKD encoding, so that the implementation of a decoy-state protocol is simplified, communication safety is guaranteed, and the QKD system is simplified.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to a decoy state quantum key distribution system based on discrete random phases. Background technique [0002] In related technologies, quantum key distribution relies on the nature of quantum mechanics to ensure the security of communication, among which the BB84 protocol is the most famous quantum key distribution protocol. The BB84 protocol uses the polarization of light to communicate using photons as carriers of quantum states. The security of the BB84 protocol is based on the fact that non-orthogonal states cannot be completely resolved by measurement. [0003] However, in the related art BB84 protocol, the transmitting end is required to use a single photon source for information transmission. However, a perfect single-photon source does not exist in practical applications. In practice, the light source can generally be considered as a coherent state. If there are ...
