Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If pseudo-random number generation is used for session key generation, then the system is easy to implement and computationally efficient, but the security is compromised due to reproducibility and susceptibility to brute force attacks
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces traditional pseudo-random number generation algorithms with a quantum random number generation system that uses quantum mechanical phenomena (such as photon detection through beam splitters or quantum tunneling) to generate truly random numbers. This substitution fundamentally changes the mechanism from deterministic computational algorithms to probabilistic quantum processes, ensuring that session keys cannot be reproduced or predicted even with unlimited computational power.
2Productivity
If traditional pseudo-random number generation methods are used, then the implementation is simple and computationally efficient, but the randomness is insufficient against modern computing power
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the fundamental parameter of randomness generation from pseudo-random (deterministic but unpredictable) to true random (inherently unpredictable due to quantum uncertainty). By utilizing quantum mechanical processes where the outcome is fundamentally probabilistic rather than deterministic, the system achieves both high-speed generation and unbreakable randomness quality, resolving the contradiction between speed and reliability.

AI summary
Systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for quantum random number generation (QRNG). An example method includes generating, by a QRNG chip, a series of particles and transmitting the series of particles through a double-slit structure comprising a first slit and a second slit. The example method further includes detecting, by the QRNG chip, a first subseries of particles transmitted through the first slit to generate a first detected subseries of particles. The example method further includes detecting, by the QRNG chip, a second subseries of particles transmitted through the second slit to generate a second detected subseries of particles. The example method further includes decoding, by the QRNG chip, the first detected subseries of particles and the second detected subseries of particles to generate a decoded set of bits that, in some instances, may be used to generate a random number, a session key, or both.
