Security Analysis of Continuous-Variable Measurement-Device-Independent Quantum Key Distribution Systems in Complex Communication Environments

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
Continuous-variable measure-device-independent quantum key distribution (CV-MDI QKD) is proposed to remove all imperfections originating from detection. However, there are still some inevitable imperfections in a practical CV-MDI QKD system. For example,

Adaptive Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution with Discrete Modulation Regulative in Free Space

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
The finite sampling bandwidth of an analog-to-digital converter has a negative effect on the continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CVQKD), which leaves a potential loophole for an eavesdropper and weakens the practical security of the system.

High-Rate Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution with Orbital Angular Momentum Multiplexing

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
The secret key rate is one of the main obstacles to the practical application of continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CVQKD). In this paper, we propose a multiplexing scheme to increase the secret key rate of the CVQKD system with orbital ...

Robustness of entanglement-based discrete- and continuous-variable quantum key distribution against channel noise

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2023
Discrete-variable (DV) and continuous-variable (CV) schemes constitute the two major families of quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols. Unfortunately, since the setup elements required by these schemes are quite different, making a fair comparison of ...

Ancilla-free continuous-variable SWAP test [PDF]

open access: yesQuantum, 2022
We propose a continuous-variable (CV) SWAP test that requires no ancilla register, thereby generalizing the ancilla-free SWAP test for qubits. In this ancilla-free CV SWAP test, the computational basis measurement is replaced by photon number-resolving ...

Discrete-modulation continuous-variable quantum key distribution with a high key rate

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2023
Discrete-modulation continuous-variable (CV) quantum key distribution has the potential for large-scale deployment in secure quantum communication networks owing to its low implementation complexity and compatibility with the current coherent optical ...

Counteracting a Saturation Attack in Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution Using an Adjustable Optical Filter Embedded in Homodyne Detector

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
A saturation attack can be employed for compromising the practical security of continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CVQKD). In this paper, we suggest a countermeasure approach to resisting this attack by embedding an adjustable optical filter ...
