Information-Theoretic Solutions for Seedless QRNG Bootstrapping and Hybrid PQC-QKD Key Combination

Juan Antonio Vieira Giestinhas, Timothy Spiller

This paper considers two challenges faced by practical quantum networks: the bootstrapping of seedless Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNGs) and the resilient combination of Pos…

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…

Continuous Variable Quantum Key Distribution with Single Quadrature Measurement at Arbitrary Reference Frame

Vinod N. Rao, Emma Tien Hwai Medlock, Timothy Spiller +1

We propose a simplified measurement scheme for a Gaussian modulated coherent state (GMCS) protocol for continuous variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD), utilizing homodyne det…
