Intermodal quantum key distribution field trial with active switching between fiber and free-space channels
Francesco Picciariello, Ilektra Karakosta-Amarantidou, Edoardo Rossi +6
Intermodal quantum key distribution enables the full interoperability of fiber networks and free-space channels, which are both necessary elements for the development of a global q…
International time transfer between precise timing facilities secured with a quantum key distribution network
Francesco Picciariello, Francesco Vedovato, Davide Orsucci +14
Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs), such as GPS and Galileo, provide precise time and space coordinates globally and constitute part of the critical infrastructure of mode…
Security bounds for decoy-state QKD with arbitrary photon-number statistics
Giulio Foletto, Francesco Picciariello, Costantino Agnesi +2
The decoy-state method is a standard enhancement to quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols that has enabled countless QKD experiments with inexpensive light sources. However, new…
Deployment-ready quantum key distribution over a classical network infrastructure in Padua
Marco Avesani, Giulio Foletto, Matteo Padovan +13
Current technological progress is driving Quantum Key Distribution towards a commercial and world widescale expansion. Its capability to deliver unconditionally secure communicatio…
Optimal design and performance evaluation of free-space Quantum Key Distribution systems
Alessia Scriminich, Giulio Foletto, Francesco Picciariello +4
Free-space ground-to-ground links will be an integral part of future quantum communication networks. The implementation of free-space and fiber links in daylight inter-modal config…
Resource-effective Quantum Key Distribution: a field-trial in Padua city center
Marco Avesani, Luca Calderaro, Giulio Foletto +9
Field-trials are of key importance for novel technologies seeking commercialization and wide-spread adoption. This is certainly also the case for Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), wh…
