Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, the simplified BB84 protocol needs to meet the detection efficiency condition that the measurement basis is independent, which is difficult to satisfy in some quantum key distribution systems
For example, for a time-phase-encoded quantum key distribution system based on passive basis selection, the detection efficiency of the phase basis is usually 3dB smaller than that of the time basis
[0006] At the same time, when the phase error rate estimation of the above scheme is performed, the existing calculation formula is relatively complicated. Under the condition of long-distance quantum key distribution, the estimated value of the phase error rate is relatively large, which will seriously reduce the security code rate.

Description

technical field [0001] A calculation method for the coding error rate of a quantum key generation system is used to solve the problem in the prior art that depends on the detection efficiency of the receiver's detection unit, improve the estimation of the related error rate, and simplify the calculation method. Background technique [0002] Quantum key distribution is one of the most promising technologies in quantum information technology. The quantum key distribution system mainly includes two parts: one is the hardware part, including sending, receiving and measuring devices; the other is software and post-processing of data. In the quantum key distribution protocol, the sender prepares the quantum state, and the receiver receives and detects the quantum state from the quantum channel (or shared channel). , and finally both parties get the key.
