London quantum-secured metro network
Andrew Lord, Robert Woodward, Shinya Murai +10
We describe a London Quantum-Secured Metro Network using Quantum Key Distribution between three London nodes together with customer access tails. The commercially- eady solution is…
Influence of Cooling on Quantum Network Deployment
Tobias Schaich, Vasileios Karavias, Max Sich +3
Superconducting detectors for quantum key distribution require expensive cooling but have advantageous detection properties. A linear programming algorithm and heuristic for networ…
Quantum Technologies in the Telecommunications Industry
Vicente Martin, Juan Pedro Brito, Carmen Escribano +13
Quantum based technologies have been fundamental in our world. After producing the laser and the transistor, the devices that have shaped our modern information society, the possib…
Reducing Network Cooling Cost Using Twin-Field Quantum Key Distribution
Vasileios Karavias, Andrew Lord, Mike Payne
Improving the rates and distances over which quantum secure keys are generated is a major challenge. New source and detector hardware can improve key rates significantly, however i…
5G Network Slicing with QKD and Quantum-Safe Security
Paul Wright, Catherine White, Ryan C. Parker +9
We demonstrate how the 5G network slicing model can be extended to address data security requirements. In this work we demonstrate two different slice configurations, with differen…
The dichotomy of distributed and centralized control: METRO-HAUL, when control planes collide for 5G networks
D. King, A. Farrel, Emiko Nishida-King +4
Automating the provisioning of 5G services, deployed over a heterogeneous infrastructure (in terms of domains, technologies, and management platforms), remains a complex task, yet…
Experimental Demonstration of DDoS Mitigation over a Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) Network Using Software Defined Networking (SDN)
Emilio Hugues-Salas, Foteini Ntavou, Yanni Ou +9
We experimentally demonstrate, for the first time, DDoS mitigation of QKD-based networks utilizing a software defined network application. Successful quantum-secured link allocatio…
First Experimental Demonstration of Secure NFV Orchestration over an SDN-Controlled Optical Network with Time-Shared Quantum Key Distribution Resources
Alejandro Aguado, Emilio Hugues-Salas, Paul Anthony Haigh +10
We demonstrate, for the first time, a secure optical network architecture that combines NFV orchestration and SDN control with quantum key distribution (QKD) technology. A novel ti…
Quantum Communication
Nicolas Gisin
Quantum Communication is the art of transferring an unknown quantum state from one location, Alice, to a distant one, Bob. This is a non-trivial task because of the quantum no-clon…
