Improving quantum dense key distribution
Z. J. Zhang, Zhong‐Xiao Man
The capacity of the quantum dense key distribution (QDKD) [Phys. Rev. A69, 032310 (2004)] is doubled by introducing the dense coding. The security of the improved QDKD against eavesdropping is pointed out to be easily proven. In both the original QDKD and the present improved QDKD, a strategy to double the efficiency of generating the secret key with given length is proposed. In addition, we point out a leak of security of the original QDKD and fix it.
