Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of quantum secure communication, and in particular to a code rate analysis method based on non-ideal Bell detection in continuous variable measurement device-independent quantum key distribution. Background Art
[0002] Information plays an important role in the development of human history. In the 21st century, it is an era of information explosion. It is particularly important to ensure the security of information. With the emergence of quantum computers, traditional encryption methods, such as RSA, face the risk of being cracked. In order to solve this potential risk, people proposed the encryption method of quantum key distribution (QKD) based on the quantum no-cloning theorem and the uncertainty principle, which has absolute security in theory. QKD includes discrete variable quantum key distribution (DV-QKD) and continuous variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD). Among them, CV-QKD has received widespread attention due to its simple equipment, low price, and strong compatibility with existing communication systems.
[0003] Although CV-QKD is absolutely secure in theory, in practical applications, due to many factors such as device imperfections, it will not be consistent with the theoretical model, resulting in security issues, such as saturation attacks against detector imperfections. In response to this situation, people proposed continuous variable measurement device-independent quantum key distribution (CV-MDI QKD), which effectively eliminates side channel attacks on the measurement device by introducing an untrusted third party Charlie between the communicating parties through Bell measurement.
[0004] In recent years, research on CV-MDI QKD schemes has made significant progress. Coherent state CV-MDI QKD in space and optical fiber has been theoretically studied and experimentally verified.
[0005] In coherent CV-MDI QKD, the signals at Alice and Bob are Bell detected at Charlie. Due to the non-ideality of the phase modulator, the detection of the P component cannot accurately rotate the phase by 90°. This introduces a measurement angle error into the measurement, resulting in non-ideal Bell detection, which will reduce the code rate of the system. Therefore, compensation for the measurement angle error and code rate analysis are very important. Summary of the invention
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the non-ideal Bell problem caused by the imperfection of the phase modulator during Bell detection in a continuous variable measurement device independent quantum key distribution system, and to propose a code rate analysis method based on non-ideal Bell detection in continuous variable measurement device independent quantum key distribution, which improves the security code rate of the system.

[0038] In order to facilitate those skilled in the art to understand and implement the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail and in depth below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0039] The present invention provides a code rate analysis method based on non-ideal Bell detection in continuous variable measurement device-independent quantum key distribution, such as Figure 1 As shown, the system includes Alice, Bob, and Charlie.
[0040] The Alice end is composed of a first continuous laser source, a first pulse modulation module, an optical beam splitter 1, a first Gaussian modulation module, a first delay module, an optical attenuator 1, and a first polarization multiplexing module.
[0041] At Alice's end, the first continuous laser source generates continuous coherent light. After the coherent light passes through the first pulse modulation module, the module is composed of two cascaded intensity modulators, which modulate the coherent light into a pulse light with a certain repetition frequency and duty cycle. This pulse light is divided into quantum signal pulse light and reference signal pulse light by a 99:1 optical beam splitter 1, wherein the reference signal pulse light directly enters the first polarization multiplexer, and the quantum signal pulse light passes through the first Gaussian modulation module to modulate the key information on the quantum signal pulse light. In this process, the phase information is loaded on the phase modulator and obeys the uniform distribution of [0, 2π], and the intensity information is loaded on the intensity modulator and obeys the Rayleigh distribution. Then, the quantum signal pulse light is attenuated to the level of the required modulation variance through the optical attenuator 1, and then the quantum signal pulse light and the reference signal pulse light are multiplexed in the time domain through the first delay module. Finally, it enters the first polarization multiplexer to multiplex the polarization of the reference signal pulse light and the quantum signal pulse light, and transmit them together to the quantum channel 1.
[0042] The Bob end is composed of a second continuous laser source, a second pulse modulation module, an optical beam splitter 2, a second Gaussian modulation module, a second delay module, an optical attenuator 2, and a second polarization multiplexing module.
[0043] At Bob's end, the second continuous laser source generates continuous coherent light. After the coherent light passes through the second pulse modulation module, which is composed of two cascaded intensity modulators, the coherent light becomes a pulse light with a certain repetition frequency and duty cycle. This pulse light is divided into quantum signal pulse light and local oscillator pulse light by a 99:1 optical beam splitter 2, wherein the local oscillator signal pulse light directly enters the second polarization multiplexer, and the quantum signal pulse light passes through the second Gaussian modulation module to modulate the key information on the quantum signal pulse light. In this process, the phase information is loaded on the phase modulator and obeys the uniform distribution of [0, 2π], and the intensity information is loaded on the intensity modulator and obeys the Rayleigh distribution. Then, the quantum signal pulse light is attenuated to the level of the required modulation variance through the optical attenuator 2, and then the quantum signal pulse light and the local oscillator pulse light are multiplexed in the time domain through the second delay module. Finally, it enters the second polarization multiplexer to multiplex the polarization of the local oscillator pulse light and the quantum signal pulse light, and transmits them together to the quantum channel 2.
[0044] The Charlie end comprises a first polarization demultiplexing module, a third delay module, an optical beam splitter, a second polarization demultiplexing module, a fourth delay module, an optical collimator, and a balanced homodyne detector.
[0045] The Charlie end comprises a first polarization demultiplexing module, a third delay module, an optical beam splitter, a second polarization demultiplexing module, a fourth delay module, an optical collimator, and a balanced homodyne detector.
[0046] At the Charlie end, the pulse light transmitted through the quantum channel 1 is demultiplexed by the first polarization demultiplexing module into reference signal pulse light and quantum signal pulse light, wherein the reference signal pulse light passes through the third delay module to achieve balancing on the optical path, and after passing through the optical beam splitter 7, it is equally divided into the optical beam splitter 10. In the optical beam splitter 11, the signal pulse light is coupled into space through the optical collimator 2 and enters the optical beam splitter 5. The pulse light transmitted through the quantum channel 2 is demultiplexed by the second polarization demultiplexing module into local oscillator pulse light and quantum signal pulse light, wherein the local oscillator pulse light passes through the fourth delay module to balance the optical path, and then is divided into two beams through the optical beam splitter 3. One part of the local oscillator pulse light is divided into two beams through the optical beam splitter 6, and one part passes through the phase modulator 2 and enters the optical beam splitters 10 and 11 with the other beam to interfere with the reference signal pulse light and enter the balanced homodyne detectors 3 and 4 for detection. The other local oscillator pulse light is divided into two beams by the optical beam splitter 4, and both pass through the optical collimator 3, the optical collimator 4, one beam passes through the phase modulator 1 and the other beam enters the optical beam splitter 8, 9. The signal pulse light is coupled into the space by the optical collimator 1, enters the beam splitter 5 to interfere with the other signal light, and then interferes with the local oscillator light in the optical collimators 3, 4 to enter the balanced homodyne detectors 1, 2 for detection.
[0047] In the module, the reference pulse light and the local oscillator pulse light interfere with each other, and the x and p components (x j ,p j ), used as phase compensation, the signal pulse light from Alice and Bob interferes with the local oscillator pulse light and is detected by balanced homodyne detectors 1 and 2 to obtain the required data (x i ,p i ).
[0048] The measurement angle error compensation method for continuous variable measurement device-independent quantum key distribution is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the specific steps are as follows:
[0049] Step 1: Alice and Bob prepare Gaussian coherent states, whose X and P components are:
[0050] X A =A sigA cos(φ sigA ) (3)
[0051] P A =A sigA sin(φ sigA ) (4)
[0052] X B =A sigB cos(φ sigB ) (5)
[0053] P B =A sigB sin(φ sigB ) (6)
[0054] Among them A sigA , A sigB Obeys Rayleigh distribution, φ sigA ,φ sigB Obeys uniform distribution in [0,2π]
[0055] Step 2: Perform Bell measurement at Charlie end to get data
[0056]
[0057]
[0058]
[0059] Among them, A Lo is the intensity of the local oscillator light, R is the responsivity of the detector, and η is the detection efficiency of the detector. shiftA ,φ shiftB is the phase drift between Alice and Bob
[0060] However, due to the imperfection of the phase modulator in the second heterodyne detection module, the phase is not rotated by 90°, so the actual P component is:
[0061]
[0062] φ ps is the angle error when measuring the phase modulator.
[0063] Step 3, normalize the data shot noise obtained in step 2, the result is:
[0064]
[0065]
[0066] Step 4: Use the data from the balanced homodyne detectors 3 and 4 to perform phase compensation. The result is:
[0067]
[0068]
[0069] Step 5: Use the data from step 4 to estimate the measurement angle error
[0070]
[0071] in, is the covariance of the two, V Ax , V Bx Prepare the modulation variance of the Gaussian states for Alcie and Bob.
[0072] Step 6: Measure the compensation of the angle error. The P component after compensation is
[0073]
[0074]
[0075] in, is the P component after compensation.
[0076] Step 7: Calculate and analyze the security code rate and generate the key.
[0077] according to Figure 3 For the model shown, the security code rate calculation method of non-ideal Bell detection CV-MDI QKD is as follows:
[0078] The covariance matrix of Alice and Bob's end sources can be described as:
[0079]
[0080] in, μ A , μ B Prepare the variance of the data for Alice and Bob.
[0081] After passing through the channel, under Eve's dual-mode attack, we take the optimal attack:
[0082]
[0083] Where g = -φ, g' = φ
[0084] Under certain physical conditions, we set:
[0085]
[0086]
[0087] T A(B) is the channel transmittance between Charlie and Alice and Bob, ε A(B) is the excess noise introduced between Charlie, Alice and Bob.
[0088] Under Bell detection at Charlie end, there are
[0089]
[0090]
[0091] Since there is an angle error in the measurement of the P component, this error is expressed by the phase rotation matrix
[0092]
[0093] θ is the measurement angle error. So the actual P component expression is:
[0094]
[0095] After Charlie published his measurement results, Bob modified mode B2 according to his published results:
[0096]
[0097] g x(p) is the gain factor related to channel attenuation.
[0098] We use the idea of entanglement exchange to estimate the code rate. This method only needs to use the covariance matrix to complete the calculation of the code rate. Therefore, we combine the X and P component expressions derived from the above formula to obtain the covariance matrix describing the system state:
[0099]
[0100] In the Matrix T x(p) represents the equivalent transmittance between Alice and Bob, T A is the channel transmittance between Alice and Charlie, and the equivalent excess noise of the system ε x(p) for:
[0101]
[0102]
[0103] In the bit rate analysis, in order to make ε x(p) To obtain the optimal value, we take
[0104] At this time, the equivalent excess noise we get is:
[0105]
[0106]
[0107] With the above matrix, we can calculate the security code rate as:
[0108] K=βI(A:B)-S(E:B) (26)
[0109] β is the coordination efficiency, and I(A:B) is the mutual information between Alice and Bob:
[0110] I(A:B)=I x (A:B)+I p (A:B) (27)
[0111]
[0112]
[0113] is the variance of the X, P components of mode B2
[0114] S(E:B)=S(E)-S(E|B) (30)
[0115] In the case of Eve's ability to purify the system, we can obtain S(E) = S(A2B'2). For a covariance matrix, we can use the symplectic eigenvalues of the matrix to calculate its von Neumann entropy:
[0116]
[0117]
[0118] For any mode covariance matrix, we can use To calculate the symplectic eigenvalues of the matrix, where:
[0119]
[0120] After heterodyning mode B'2, mode A2 is projected onto a new Gaussian state:
[0121]
[0122]
[0123] Then, the von Neumann entropy is solved according to the method of calculating the symplectic eigenvalues.
[0124] like Figure 4 As shown, the code rate analysis method of the present invention is used to simulate the change of the security code rate of the extreme asymmetric structure CV-MDI-QKD before and after the measurement angle error compensation. It can be seen from the figure that as the measurement angle error increases, the security code rate will seriously drop and the transmission distance will also become shorter. After compensation, the code rate and distance can be significantly improved, indicating that the method proposed in the present invention has a very significant effect.

After reading the above content, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and substitutions of the present invention will occur.
