Differential-phase-shift quantum key distribution with an extended degree of freedom

Toshimori Honjo, Kyo Inoue

Differential-phase-shift quantum key distribution (DPS-QKD) with an extended degree of freedom of measurement is proposed. Extending the degree of freedom makes it possible to strengthen the DPS-QKD scheme against intercept-and-resend attacks. The feasibility of this idea is experimentally demonstrated.

Efficient quantum key distribution based on hybrid degrees of freedom

Qianping Mao, Le Wang, Shengmei Zhao

Abstract Round-robin differential-phase-shift (RRDPS) quantum key distribution (QKD) protocol is a practical QKD protocol without monitoring the signal disturbance. However, how to further increase the secure key rate is still a challenge in practice. In the paper, we propose a high efficient QKD protocol based on RRDPS-QKD, where the photon-states are encoded in two degrees of freedom (DOFs), phase and polarization. The key generation rate and the security of the proposal protocol are analyzed. The simulation results show that the secure key rate is greatly improved in comparison with the original RRDPS-QKD protocol by breaking the limitation of quantum state in a single DOF. Moreover, our protocol can still maintain the high error tolerance of RRDPS-QKD protocol.

Differential-phase-shift quantum key distribution with phase modulation to combat sequential attacks

Hiroki Kawahara, Toru Oka, Kyo Inoue

Phase-modulated differential-phase-shift (DPS) quantum key distribution (QKD) is presented for combating sequential attacks that most severely restrict the DPS-QKD system distance. Slow phase modulation imposed onto the DPS signal obstructs the optimum unambiguous state discrimination measurement conducted in the sequential attack and improves the QKD distance as a result. The condition with which the phase modulation does not degrade the DPS-QKD system performance is also described.
