The invention discloses a post-
processing system for phase polarization joint modulation QKD. The
system comprises a sender and a
receiver. Each of the sender and the
receiver comprises an informationinteraction unit, a parameter
estimation unit, an error correction unit and a
confidentiality amplification unit which are connected in sequence. The information interaction unit, the parameter
estimation unit, the error correction unit and the
confidentiality amplification unit of the sender are respectively connected with the information interaction unit, the parameter
estimation unit, the error correction unit and the
confidentiality amplification unit of the
receiver in a one-to-one correspondence manner through channels. According to the invention, aiming at the characteristics of a phase polarization joint modulation QKD
system and a double-speed protocol used by the phase polarization joint modulation QKD system, a traditional
transceiver base vector comparison step is not needed in the information interaction unit, so that the information interaction amount is reduced, and the post-
processing efficiency is improved; and the parameter estimation unit estimates the
bit error rate of the key by using a packet parity check method, and selects a reasonable error
correction method and a secrecy amplification method after estimating channel parameters, so that the
correctness andthe safety of
quantum key distribution are improved by the steps.
