Problems solved by technology

But this technique does not obtain the shot noise variance in real time, only before the key distribution
When Eve attacks the local oscillator during the key distribution process, the actual shot noise variance of the system changes, but the shot noise scaling technique cannot obtain the changed shot noise variance

Abstract

The invention discloses a CVQKD system and a method for monitoring the shot noise variance thereof in real time. According to the CVQKD system, in a receiving end, signal light is split into quantum signal light and local oscillation light after passing through a polarization beam splitter. A first adjustable optical attenuator is arranged on a quantum signal light path, and the quantum signal light enters a 50 / 50 beam splitter. A second adjustable optical attenuator and a 10 / 90 beam splitter are sequentially arranged on a local oscillation light path along the direction of the local oscillation light. 10% of the local oscillation light output by the 10 / 90 beam splitter is sent to a photoelectric detector, and 90% of the local oscillation light sequentially enters the 50 / 50 beam splitter after passing through the polarization beam splitter, a phase modulator and a Faraday mirror, and interferes with the quantum signal light. The output end of the 50 / 50 beam splitter is connected with a Homodyne detector. The output ends of the Homodyne detector and the photoelectric detector are connected to a Bob-end control circuit. The method and the system can effectively resist the attack of Eve to local oscillation light, and therefore, the safety of the CVQKD system is effectively improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of quantum security communication, and relates to a CVQKD system security communication method. Specifically, the variance of shot noise is monitored in real time to effectively resist the attack of Eve on the light intensity of the local oscillator, thereby improving the communication quality. Background technique [0002] Document 1 "P.Jouguet, S.Kunz-Jacques, T.Debuisschert, Opt.Express20, 14030 (2012)." proposes a security analysis method under the E-B model, which ignores that the local oscillator may be eavesdropped ( Eve) attack; the local oscillator light is attacked by an eavesdropper, which will cause the light intensity of the local oscillator to change, and then the variance of the system shot noise will also change; and in the system security analysis, all noise parameters of the system must be normalized to Shot noise variance. When Eve controls the local oscillator to make the shot noise variance smalle...
