Free-Space Optical (FSO) systems are emerging as a viable solution for highthroughput and are considered as a promising reference to future 6G in high-speed opticalwireless communication. The proposed framework considers DWDM-QKD (DenseWavelength Division Multiplexing – Quantum Key Distribution) enabled FSO system withExplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) driven intelligent control to explore the performanceunder varying atmospheric conditions such as Haze, Light Fog and Heavy fog (Turbulence).The purpose of the proposed work is to study the underlying performance of varyingatmospheric conditions for future 6G by comparing the results with classical DWDM to thatof DWDM-QKD with XAI SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations) analysis for secure Datatransmission. The performance metrics such as Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) for classical linkquality, Secret Key Rate (SKR) for effective security throughput, SKR collapse, SHAPdependence plot and SHAP Interaction analysis for receiver diameter aperture has been foundfor safe and secure data transmission. The outcome of the study integrates to figure out thatthe data transmission is safe and the quantum security requirements has been met undervarying atmospheric conditions.

Wavelength Allocation for Quantum Channel in Integrated Classical and Quantum Communication System

Eszter Udvary

Integrating a quantum communication channel with classical optical communication is a cost-effective, deployment-friendly solution to provide secure data transmission over optical fibres. However, the noise introduced by intense classical signals into the quantum channel severely impacts the performance of quantum communication. This paper evaluates the impact of optical attenuation and Spontaneous Raman Scattering in the quantum communication system. A hybrid Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) and Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) solution is investigated by combining experimental and theoretical work. The optimal wavelength allocation strategy is defined.

Theoretical analysis of quantum key distribution systems when integrated with a DWDM optical transport network

Irina O. Vorontsova, R. Goncharov, Angelina Tarabrina +2 more

Theoretical research and numerical simulation of the noise influence caused by spontaneous Raman scattering, four-wave mixing, and linear channel cross talk on the performances of quantum key distribution (QKD) systems were conducted. Three types of QKD systems were considered: a coherent one-way QKD protocol, subcarrier-wave QKD system, and continuous-variable QKD integrated with classical dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) channels. We calculate the secure key generation rate for the systems mentioned addressing different channel allocation schemes (i.e., configurations). A uniform DWDM grid is considered with a quantum channel located in the C-band and O-band (at 1310 nm) of a telecommunication window. The systems’ performances are analyzed in terms of the maximal achievable distance values. Configurations for further analysis and investigation are chosen optimally, i.e., their maximal achievable distances are the best.

A theoretical study of subcarrier-wave quantum key distribution system integration with an optical transport network utilizing dense wavelength division multiplexing

Fedor Kiselev, Natalia Veselkova, Roman Goncharov +1 more

In this paper we study the performance of subcarrier-wave quantum key distribution (SCW QKD) in the presence of classical channels of optical transport network utilizing dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM). We consider the impact of spontaneous Raman scattering noise as well as the four-wave mixing and channel isolation efficiency. We calculate quantum bit error rate as well as the secure key generation rate of SCW-QKD protocol for different parameters of DWDM system and quantum channel allocations. Our calculations show, that quantum channel allocation at the wavelength of 1310 nm is preferable to allocation at C-band due to lower nonlinear noise, despite fiber's larger attenuation at this wavelength.
