Practical Countermeasure Against Attacks Exploiting Detection Efficiency Mismatch in Quantum Key Distribution
Ben J. Taylor, Peter R. Smith, James F. Dynes +4
We demonstrate a practical countermeasure against a well-known class of attacks on quantum key distribution (QKD) systems that exploit detection efficiency mismatch, where the rece…
Fundamental Limits on Polarization Entanglement Distribution in Optical Fiber
Stefano Pirandola
Characterizing the ultimate rates of entanglement distribution is essential for both foundational research and the practical deployment of quantum technologies. To investigate thes…
Continuous variable quantum key distribution channel emulator for the SPOQC mission
Emma Tien Hwai Medlock, Vinod N. Rao, Ry Render +2
In a free space optical (FSO) communication link from satellite to ground, the losses in the channel will be dynamic. Thus, the characterization of the FSO channel is of great impo…
Fundamental Limits on QBER and Distance in Quantum Key Distribution
Stefano Pirandola
Quantum key distribution (QKD) enables information-theoretic secure communication, yet its ultimate tolerance to noise and achievable transmission distance remain fundamentally con…
Optimizing Epsilon Security Parameters in QKD
Alexander G. Mountogiannakis, Stefano Pirandola
We investigate the optimization of epsilon-security parameters in quantum key distribution (QKD), aiming to improve the achievable secure key rate under a fixed overall composable…
Phase noise characterisation of a 2-km Hollow-Core Nested Antiresonant Nodeless Fibre for Twin-Field Quantum Key Distribution
Mariella Minder, Sophie Albosh, Obada Alia +5
The performance of quantum key distribution (QKD) is heavily dependent on the physical properties of the channel over which it is executed. Propagation losses and perturbations in…
