Simulation study on reverse reconciliation of a continuous variable quantum key distribution system
Kang Li, Li Yu, Bojun Yang
We have demonstrated a reverse reconciliation of a continuous-variable quantum key distribution system with efficient low-density parity check codes. A standard coded modulation technique, called Multi Level Coding/ Multistage Decoding scheme, is used to optimize the reconciliation. Via a numerical simulation, we get the results that efficiency of the reconciliation algorithm reaches 0.89 while the final secure key distribution rate of the whole system is more than 2.2 kbits/s over 20 km of single-mode optical fiber.
