Experimental Investigation of Availability in a 4.6 km Terrestrial Urban Coherent Free-Space Optical Communications Link
Vincent van Vliet, Menno van den Hout, Kadir Gümüş +2
We measured the outage probability of a 4.6-km urban free-space optical communication link over six days. High-speed power measurements reveal slow and fast fading effects, with li…
Early Termination of Low-Density Parity-Check Codes for Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution
Kadir Gümüş, João dos Reis Frazão, Vincent van Vliet +4
We analyse the impact of log a-posteriori early termination on the decoding throughput of reconciliation for continuous-variable quantum key distribution. Increases in decoded secr…
Short Blocklength Error Correction Codes for Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution
Kadir Gümüş, João dos Reis Frazão, Boris Škorić +4
We introduce a two-step error correction scheme for reconciliation in continuous-variable quantum key distribution systems. Using this scheme, it is possible to use error correctio…
Low Rate Protograph-Based LDPC Codes for Continuous Variable Quantum Key Distribution
Kadir Gümüs, Laurent Schmalen
Error correction plays a major role in the reconciliation of continuous variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD) and greatly affects the performance of the system. CV-QKD require…
