Abstract As quantum key distribution (QKD) emerges as a robust defence against quantum computer threats, significant advancements have been realised by researchers. A pivotal focus has been the development of protocols that not only simplify hardware implementation, such as the use of continuous-variable (CV) systems, but also eliminate ...

On the Discretized Gaussian Modulation (DGM)- Based Continuous Variable-QKD
To overcome the low reconciliation efficiency problem of Gaussian modulation (GM)-based-continuous variable (CV)-quantum key distribution (QKD), in this paper, we propose to use discretized GM (DGM)-based-CV-QKD. The proposed CV-QKD scheme has complexity

QKD-Enhanced Cybersecurity Protocols
Security of QKD is guaranteed by the quantum mechanics laws rather than unproven assumptions employed in computational cryptography. Unfortunately, the secret-key rates are way too low and transmission distances are limited. The post-quantum cryptography

The Future of QKD Networks [PDF]
With the recent advancements in quantum technologies, the QKD market exploded. World players are scrambling to win the race towards global QKD networks, even before the rules and policies required by such large endeavors were even discussed. Several vendors are on the market, each with specific parameters and advantages (in terms of key rate, link ...

Quantum information to the home [PDF]
Information encoded on individual quanta will play an important role in our future lives, much as classically encoded digital information does today. Combining quantum information carried by single photons with classical signals encoded on strong laser ...
