Analysis of Quantum Key Distribution Protocols

Myat Su Win, Thet Thet Khin

Essential role of Internet-based communication is the security of information. Classical Cryptography is based on mathematical models and computational complexity to compute the secret key. It does not provide enough security because finding a fast method to calculate the secret key will compromise the security of the system. Quantum Key Distribution is one of the most promising methods which provide unconditional security. Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) uses a quantum property in exchanging information called photons, as carriers of information in security systems, and QKD cannot separate from protocols BB84, B92 and BBM92. In this paper, we are testing the probability error comparison of BB84 protocol, B92 protocol, and BBM92 using QuVis simulator software. The results show that the B92 protocol is more relevant in detecting eavesdropping in lower error rates than the other two protocols.

QUANTUM CRYPTOGRAPHY AND COMPARISON OF QUANTUM KEY DISTRIBUTION PROTOCOLS

Ergün Gümüş, Zeynep Gurkas Aydin, Muhammed Ali Aydın

Even though there have been various proposed and wideley used ciphering techniques in cryptography, main improvements in this field came out with the idea of “super computing”. Till now, popular methods like DES, AES and RSA which can be mathematically cracked in a duration of universe’s age, have been proposed. But all of these methods’s future is at risk because of the studies in production of “Quantum Computer”s of which computation speed is estimated to be very high so that no other existing super computers compete with them. At this stage, by using quantum mechanics a new method called “Quantum Key Distribution” and its protocols for the process of building cipher key, are proposed instead of determining new mathematical solutions for securing the data. In this study, a simulation project based on previously proposed Quantum Key Distribution protocols BB84 and B92, will be explained. At the end of the project by using BB84 and B92 protocols, a comparison of quantum bit error rates and detection rates of eavesdropping according to protocols, is done and results are obtained.

Simulation of BB84 and proposed protocol for quantum key distribution

Manish Kalra, Ramesh Chandra Poonia

Quantum key distribution is a secure way of transferring the keys among entities involved in communication. BB84 is the first protocol for QKD in year 1984. In this paper we are giving the simulation process of BB84 protocol in C++ and also the simulation of proposed protocol in C++ using object oriented approach. Proposed protocol uses a two-way quantum channel and also generates an additional initial bits sequence at another end for polarization.
