Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

BACKGROUND

[0002] With the development of quantum computing technology, the classical cryptosystem based on computational complexity is facing unprecedented security challenges. Quantum key distribution (QKD) technology emerges as the times require. QKD is one of the important applications of quantum mechanics combined with quantum information theory, and the basic principles of quantum mechanics guarantee the security of QKD. When QKD is combined with the "one-time pad" encryption protocol, a quantum secure communication system with unconditional security can be realized. Continuous variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD) uses the orthogonal components of the optical field as the carrier of information, most of the devices are compatible with classical coherent optical communication, and have good compatibility with traditional optical communication networks, simple operation conditions, rich applications, and have become a research hotspot in recent years.

[0003] Slice negotiation scheme and multi-dimensional negotiation scheme are the two most commonly used negotiation schemes. Slice negotiation is only suitable for short-distance key secure transmission CV-QKD system due to its low negotiation efficiency. The multi-dimensional negotiation process does not require quantization operation, so its negotiation efficiency is relatively higher, and it is more suitable for application to long-distance key secure transmission CV-QKD system than Slice negotiation. However, the multi-dimensional negotiation process needs to process a large amount of information, which becomes the bottleneck of realizing high-throughput CV-QKD system, resulting in the problem of heavy burden of classical channel, which brings certain information transmission pressure to the system.

[0035] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0036] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in an embodiment, the present application provides a multi-dimensional negotiation method for continuous variable quantum key distribution based on Polar code and lossy compression, which comprises:

[0037] Step S1, according to the Gaussian approximation algorithm, channel estimation is performed on a Gaussian sequence with length N s and compression rate R s , the polarization subchannel reliability order under the Gaussian sequence is determined, and the high-entropy bit set and the low-entropy bit set are determined according to the polarization subchannel reliability order.

[0038] Specifically, a Gaussian sequence with length N s is taken, and the compression rate of the Gaussian sequence is set to R s . According to the Gaussian approximation algorithm, channel estimation is performed on the Gaussian sequence to determine the polarization subchannel reliability order under the Gaussian sequence.

[0039] In this embodiment, according to the polarization subchannel reliability order, N=N s ×R s subchannels with higher channel reliability are set as a high-entropy bit set E, and the remaining N s -N subchannels are set as a low-entropy bit set E c .

[0040] It should be noted that the Gaussian approximation (GA) is a conventional technical means in the art, and details can be referred to the introduction in https: / / marshallcomm.cn / 2017 / 03 / 07 / polar-code-4-encoding-channel-est / and will not be described in detail here; in the embodiment, the Gaussian approximation algorithm is used to perform channel estimation on the Gaussian sequence to determine the reliability ordering of the polar sub-channels under the Gaussian sequence, and the main principle is to calculate the LLR by using the simplified formula, and the reliability of each sub-channel can be calculated by the reliability measurement formula, and the reliability ordering of the polar sub-channels is obtained.

[0041] It should be noted that LLR, the full name in English: Log-Likelihood Ratio, Chinese translation: log-likelihood ratio.

[0042] Step S2, under the premise of reverse multi-dimensional negotiation, the quantum information sender prepares a quantum state x, and transmits the quantum state x to the quantum information receiver through a quantum channel, so that the quantum information receiver measures the quantum state x to obtain an original key y associated with the quantum information sender.

[0043] It should be noted that the quantum channel is used to transmit quantum states carrying information or randomness.

[0044] In the embodiment, the quantum state x and the original key y are subject to Gaussian distribution.

[0045] It should be noted that the reverse multi-dimensional negotiation refers to a method of negotiating and processing the original key in a quantum key distribution system. In the quantum key distribution process, due to channel noise and eavesdropper interference, the original key obtained by the legitimate communication parties may be asymmetric. In order to obtain a symmetric key, it is necessary to negotiate and process the original key in the data post-processing process. The multi-dimensional negotiation scheme can convert the information negotiation problem into a channel coding problem, and combined with the excellent performance of error correction code, it can realize high key rate and long distance secure key distribution.

[0046] In the embodiment, the length of the quantum state x and the original key y is the same as the length of the Gaussian sequence in step S1, that is, N s .

[0047] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in an embodiment, in the step S2, wherein, The modulation variance of the quantum information sender; the quantum channel is an AWGN channel; the noise z of the quantum channel obeys a Gaussian distribution, Wherein, The noise variance of the quantum channel;

[0048] y=x+z, y~N Wherein, Respectively represent the first, second, …, N s Value of x; Respectively represent the first, second, …, N s Value of y.

[0049] It should be noted that in step S2, after the quantum information sender transmits the quantum state x to the quantum information receiver, the quantum information sender still contains the quantum state x.

[0050] It should be noted that AWGN, namely additive white Gaussian noise, is a mathematical model for simulating the channel between the transmitter and the receiver. This model is a linearly increasing wideband noise with constant spectral density and Gaussian distribution of amplitude. AWGN is not suitable for fading, intermodulation and interference test.

[0051] Step S3, the quantum information sender lossy compresses the quantum state x based on the high entropy bit set and the low entropy bit set, and obtains a first binary sequence x s ; the quantum information sender lossy compresses the original key y based on the high entropy bit set and the low entropy bit set, and obtains a second binary sequence y s .

[0052] In an embodiment, the step S3 includes: calculating the log-likelihood ratio (LLR) of the quantum state x, and then outputting the polarization subchannel of the quantum state x based on the calculation result; if the polarization subchannel of the quantum state x belongs to the low entropy bit set, it is discarded; if the polarization subchannel of the quantum state x belongs to the high entropy bit set, the first binary sequence x s Is output through the first decision formula; wherein the first decision formula is as follows:

[0053]

[0054] Wherein, LLR value of the polarization subchannel of the i-th bit in the quantum state x; i takes 1 to N s ; Indicates that the condition Is greater than or equal to Indicates that the condition Is greater than

[0055] It should be noted that w.p. represents a decision made based on probability; specifically, by calculating the values of and respectively, and comparing the sizes of the two; if the value of is larger or the two are equal, it is determined that x s is 0; if the value of is larger, it is determined that x s is 1.

[0056] The original key y is used to calculate the log-likelihood ratio, and then the polarization sub-channel of the original key y is output based on the calculation result; if the polarization sub-channel of the original key y belongs to the low-entropy bit set, it is discarded; if the polarization sub-channel of the original key y belongs to the high-entropy bit set, the second binary sequence y s is output through a second decision formula; wherein the second decision formula is as follows:

[0057]

[0058] wherein, represents the LLR value of the polarization sub-channel of the i-th bit in the original key y; i takes 1 to N s . represents the condition is greater than or equal to represents the condition is greater than

[0059] Specifically, by calculating the values of and respectively, and comparing the sizes of the two; if the value of is larger or the two are equal, it is determined that y s is 0; if the value of is larger, it is determined that y s is 1.

[0060] It should be noted that the calculation of the log-likelihood ratio (i.e. the LLR value) described above uses conventional technical means in the art, and therefore will not be described in detail here.

[0061] Step S4, the quantum information sender performs mapping operation on the first binary sequence x s to obtain a first mapping sequence x m ; the quantum information sender performs mapping operation on the second binary sequence y s to obtain a second mapping sequence y m .

[0062] In the embodiment, the first mapping sequence x m and the second mapping sequence y m are subject to Gaussian distribution, and the length of the first mapping sequence x m and the length of the second mapping sequence y m are both N.

[0063] In step S5, the quantum information sender groups the first mapping sequence x m , and the quantum information receiver groups the second mapping sequence y m , so as to respectively form a first d-dimensional vector by every d continuous Gaussian variables in the first mapping sequence x m and a second d-dimensional vector by every d continuous Gaussian variables in the second mapping sequence y m , and then obtain a corresponding first normalized vector x' and a second normalized vector y' by normalizing the first d-dimensional vector and the second d-dimensional vector respectively.

[0064] In an embodiment, in step S5,

[0065] x' = x m / ||x m ||;

[0066] y' = y m / ||y m ||;

[0067]

[0068]

[0069] wherein d is the dimension of the reverse multi-dimensional negotiation, and according to the Hurwitz theorem of synthetic algebra, the value of d is any one of 1, 2, 4, and 8; x m(i) represents the i-th value in x m ; and y m(i) represents the i-th value in y m .

[0070] In step S6, the quantum information receiver as the key sender generates a key sequence u, and performs Polar code encoding on the key sequence u to generate a code word c, and sends the norm information about the Polar code encoding to the key receiver through a classical channel.

[0071] In the embodiment, the quantum information sender is the key receiver.

[0072] It should be noted that the classical channel is used to ensure that the quantum information sender and the quantum information receiver can exchange some necessary information.

[0073] It should be noted that the Polar code, i.e. the polarization code, is a forward error correction coding method for signal transmission, and the core idea thereof is to make each sub-channel present different reliability through channel polarization processing. When the code length continuously increases, part of the channels will tend to be perfect channels (no error) with a capacity close to 1, and another part of the channels will tend to be pure noise channels with a capacity close to 0. Selecting the channels with a capacity close to 1 to directly transmit information to approach the channel capacity is the only method that can be strictly proved to reach the Shannon limit.

[0074] In an embodiment, in the step S6, the raw key sequence u is a binary sequence randomly generated by the quantum information receiver, and the length of the raw key sequence u is K; the length of the code word c is N; K≤N.

[0075] In step S7, the key sender converts the code word c into a spherical sequence c'.

[0076] In the embodiment, all elements of the spherical sequence c' are located on a sphere centered at 0.

[0077] In an embodiment, in the step S7,

[0078]

[0079] wherein c1, c2, c N respectively represent the 1st, 2nd and Nth values in the code word c.

[0080] In step S8, the key sender calculates a rotation mapping function according to the second normalized vector y' and the spherical sequence c', and sends the rotation mapping function to the key receiver through a classical channel.

[0081] In an embodiment, in the step S8, M(y', c') x y' = c'; wherein M(y', c') is the rotation mapping function.

[0082] In step S9, the key receiver performs rotation mapping on the first normalized vector x' by using the rotation mapping function, to obtain a noisy information sequence v.

[0083] In an embodiment, in the step S9, v = M(y', c') x x'.

[0084] In step S10, the key receiver performs Polar code decoding on the noisy information sequence v by using the norm information, to obtain a decoding result and judges whether the decoding is successful based on the decoding result .

[0085] If the decoding fails, the steps S6 to S10 are repeated, the key sender continues to generate the raw key sequence and calculate the rotation mapping function and send to the key receiver, until the key receiver decodes successfully; if the decoding succeeds, the key receiver and the key sender obtain consistent secure keys; the secure keys are the decoding results

[0086] In an embodiment, the step S10 comprises: the key receiver calculates a decoding initialization message based on the norm information, and performs Polar code decoding on the noisy information sequence v based on the decoding initialization message to obtain the decoding results determines whether the decoding results are equal to the raw key sequence u; if yes, the decoding succeeds; if no, the decoding fails.

[0087] Specifically, the calculation formula of the decoding initialization message is as follows:

[0088]

[0089] wherein, L(v i ) represents the decoding initialization message; v i represents the i-th value of the noisy information sequence v; i takes 1 to N.

[0090] It should be noted that the above i all represents the index bit.

[0091] It should be noted that in the prior art multi-dimensional negotiation scheme, the communication parties (i.e. the quantum information sender and the quantum information receiver) need to process a large amount of information, and a large amount of information is transmitted through a classical channel; in the present application, the quantum state x and the original key y are lossy compressed, and the high-entropy bit part is selected as the effective information carrier to obtain the sequence x m and y m (reduced from length N s to N), which realizes effective lossy compression of the quantum state x and the original key y, thereby reducing the amount of information to be processed in the multi-dimensional negotiation and reducing the burden of the classical channel in information transmission.
