Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of optical secure communication and optical signal processing, and particularly relates to a secure key distribution device, a control method, a medium and a computer device. BACKGROUND
[0002] At present, more than 90% of information communication in the world is carried by optical networks. The transparency of optical networks improves network performance, but also brings new hidden dangers to network security. The ability to intercept information from optical networks has been mastered at home and abroad. Secure optical communication at the physical layer has become an effective strategy to protect large-scale data exchange security in modern communication networks. The secure key distribution process plays an important role in the symmetric encryption system. There are many secure key distribution schemes based on physical laws in classical channels. One of them is a secure key distribution scheme based on chaos synchronization. The optical chaos system has unique advantages of high randomness and high spectral bandwidth, and can realize security at the information theory level based on the synchronization characteristics of chaos. In this type of secure key distribution scheme, the efficiency of secure key generation is restricted by factors such as chaos synchronization recovery time and key random extraction strategy. At the same time, the bandwidth of the chaos entropy source, the robustness of chaos synchronization, and the efficiency of information mediation are also aspects that need to be considered in the design of this type of secure key distribution system. Another secure key distribution scheme is based on the reciprocity of the fiber channel. The security of this type of secure key distribution scheme lies in that the eavesdropper at a specific interception point cannot measure the dynamic characteristics of the entire fiber channel, and it only exists between the legal communication parties. However, the inherent random characteristics of the fiber channel are usually slow-changing, which limits the further development of the secure key distribution rate.
[0003] The subsequent secure key distribution scheme based on active disturbance to some extent accelerates the secure key distribution rate and enhances the security of secure key distribution. However, the key distribution scheme based on broadband chaos entropy source and polarization reciprocity of fiber channel only modulates the chaos signal on a single polarization state. When passing through the polarizer at the receiving end, the phenomenon of light polarization state being orthogonal to the polarizer and resulting in too low light intensity is inevitable, which will cause the key rate to be high at times and low at times, and the key cannot be extracted stably for a long time.
[0004] Through the above analysis, the problems and defects of the prior art are:
[0005] (1) In the existing secure key distribution scheme based on the reciprocity of the fiber channel, the inherent random characteristics of the fiber channel are usually slow-changing, which limits the further development of the secure key distribution rate.
[0006] (2) The existing key distribution scheme based on broadband chaotic entropy source and polarization reciprocity of fiber channel only modulates chaotic signal on a single polarization state, and the phenomenon of low light intensity caused by the orthogonality between light polarization state and polarizer occurs, resulting in high and low key rate, and the key cannot be extracted stably for a long time.
