Time-gated dual-comb sensing for long-distance high-resolution distributed fiber monitoring

A technique for dual-comb high-resolution distributed sensing that employs a “gating” feature to the probe comb in the time-domain. Operationally, probe comb signals are gated as blocks and sent into a optical fiber with adjusted time intervals. In a signal processing stage, the block signals are merged as a complete analysis window such that every spatial resolution can be reconstructed. By sliding the window, the entire optical fiber can advantageously be monitored. Our technique advantageously breaks a sensing distance bottleneck found in conventional, dual-comb distributed fiber sensing, thereby providing high-spatial resolution sensing over a long distance.

Quantum key distribution system to overcome intercept-resend and detector-control quantum hacking

A quantum key distribution system may include a transceiver including a state randomizer to impart a random state transformation to one or more qubits of a generated faint pulse and a quantum bit encoder to reflect the faint pulse back to the transceiver with one or more encoded bits. The transceiver may receive a return pulse through the communication channel, where the state randomizer reverses the random state transformation. The transceiver may include a set of two detectors to measure the return pulse at time-gated timeslots associated with possible paths of the return pulse. Reception of the faint pulse from the quantum bit encoder as the return pulse triggers a detector in one or more known time-gated timeslots determined based on the random state transformation, while reception of a faked-state pulse results in a non-zero probability of triggering of a detector in a different time-gated timeslot.
