Problems solved by technology

However, the MDI-QKD-based star network has a limited distance, and how to relay between star networks is an unsolved problem.
[0014] However, in most QKD networks in real-world scenarios, it is difficult to ensure that all nodes are completely trusted, and trusted nodes and untrusted nodes coexist. Therefore, if trusted relay technology is used in this scenario, there are security issues; and the use of MDI-QKD technology has the problem of being limited by the transmission distance, that is to say, the performance of MDI-QKD will gradually decrease when the transmission distance increases

Abstract

The present invention provides a quantum key distribution network and a quantum key distribution method and device. The method includes: determining a trusted relay route from a source node to a destination node; wherein, the trusted relay route in the The relay nodes are all trusted nodes, and the distance between adjacent nodes is less than or equal to 2 hops; for each pair of adjacent nodes whose distance is 2 hops in the trusted relay route, determine the Untrusted node; Based on the trusted relay route and the determined relay of the untrusted node, the distribution of the shared quantum key between the source node and the destination node is realized; wherein, the trusted nodes are all provided with QKD Transmitters and receivers; non-trusted nodes are equipped with QKD transmitters and MDI‑QKD receivers. By applying the present invention, under the scenario where trusted nodes and untrusted nodes coexist, the relay node can be used to realize quantum key distribution between two remote nodes, thereby improving the security of the QKD network.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of quantum key distribution, in particular to a quantum key distribution network and a quantum key distribution method and device. Background technique [0002] In today's information age, the security of network information is facing serious security risks. The security of the quantum secure communication network is guaranteed by the basic laws of quantum mechanics such as its "Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle" and "Quantum Uncloning Law", which has the advantage of "unconditional security" in theory. With the rapid development of communication networks, the application fields of quantum communication technology are constantly being broadened. A typical application with relatively mature development and potential for industrialization at this stage is the quantum secret communication network based on QKD (Quantum Key Distribution, quantum key distribution). [0003] At present, from a technical pe...
