Analysis of untrusted-node quantum key distribution from a geostationary satellite
Thomas Liege, Perrine Lognone, Matteo Schiavon +4
In pursuit of a global quantum key distribution (QKD) network, a service based on untrusted nodes on geostationary satellites could offer wide coverage, continuous operation, and e…
Multi-actuator lens systems for turbulence correction in free-space optical communications
Matteo Schiavon, Antonio Vanzo, Kevin Campaci +2
The implementation of efficient free-space channels is fundamental for both classical and quantum Free-Space Optical (FSO) communication. This can be challenging for fibre-coupled…
Quantum Key Distribution with Efficient Post-Quantum Cryptography-Secured Trusted Node on a Quantum Network
Yoann Piétri, Pierre-Enguerrand Verdier, Baptiste Lacour +13
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) enables two distant users to exchange a secret key with information-theoretic security, based on the fundamental laws of quantum physics. While it is…
QOSST: A Highly-Modular Open Source Platform for Experimental Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution
Yoann Piétri, Matteo Schiavon, Valentina Marulanda Acosta +5
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) enables secret key exchange between two remote parties with information-theoretic security rooted in the laws of quantum physics. Encoding key inform…
Free-space model for a balloon-based quantum network
Ilektra Karakosta-Amarantidou, Raja Yehia, Matteo Schiavon
Long-distance communication is one of the main bottlenecks in the development of quantum communication networks. Free-space communication is a way to circumvent exponential fiber l…
Increasing the secret key rate of satellite-to-ground entanglement-based QKD assisted by adaptive optics
Valentina Marulanda Acosta, Daniele Dequal, Matteo Schiavon +4
Future quantum networks will be composed of both terrestrial links for metropolitan and continent-scale connections and space-based links for global coverage and infrastructure res…
