Column Generation for the Optimization of Switching in Repeaterless Quantum Networks
Álvaro Troyano Olivas, Andrés Agustí Casado, Hans H. Brunner +4
Efficient resource allocation and optical switching promise high key rates, network adaptability, and cost reduction in repeaterless quantum communication networks. However, identi…
The optical architecture of a heterogenous quantum network deployed in production facilities
Alberto Sebastián-Lombraña, Hans H. Brunner, David Rincón +15
Quantum Communications promise advances in cryptography, quantum computing and clock synchronisation, among other emerging applications. However, communication based on quantum phe…
Pilot-assisted intradyne reception for high-speed continuous-variable quantum key distribution with true local oscillator
Fabian Laudenbach, Bernhard Schrenk, Christoph Pacher +6
We present a pilot-assisted coherent intradyne reception methodology for CV-QKD with true local oscillator. An optically phase-locked reference tone, prepared using carrier-suppres…
Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution with Gaussian Modulation -- The Theory of Practical Implementations
Fabian Laudenbach, Christoph Pacher, Chi-Hang Fred Fung +6
Quantum key distribution using weak coherent states and homodyne detection is a promising candidate for practical quantum-cryptographic implementations due to its compatibility wit…
Space QUEST mission proposal: Experimentally testing decoherence due to gravity
Siddarth Koduru Joshi, Jacques Pienaar, Timothy C. Ralph +42
Models of quantum systems on curved space-times lack sufficient experimental verification. Some speculative theories suggest that quantum properties, such as entanglement, may exhi…
A Differential Phase Shift Scheme for Quantum Key Distribution in Passive Optical Networks
Michael Hentschel, Andreas Poppe, Bernhard Schrenk +3
We propose a scheme for quantum key distribution (QKD) in a passive optical network (PON) based on differential phase shift (DPS) coding. A centralized station including all expens…
