Problems solved by technology

[0007] The operating frequency and efficiency of lasers, single photon detectors and other devices in a single QKD system are limited, so the improvement of the coding rate is limited
[0008] The existing one-to-many, many-to-many QKD multiplexing network uses a plug-and-play system solution based on phase coding, and its coding rate is limited by the modulation accuracy of the phase modulators at the sending and receiving ends.

Abstract

The invention discloses a high-encoding-rate point-to-point QKD system, a transmitting terminal, a receiving terminal and a QKD method. The transmitting terminal comprises a light source module, an encoder, wavelength division multiplexers and a fiber interface in sequence in the optical signal transmission direction, and further comprises a main control logic module used for sending a control signal to the encoder. The light source module comprises a plurality of light sources with different emission wavelengths. The output end of each light source is connected with a beam splitter. The outputs of the corresponding light sources are divided into multiple optical signals to be outputted to the encoder for encoding through the beam slitters. The fiber interface is a multi-core fiber interface, and is used for converting the optical signals from the wavelength division multiplexers into multi-core fibers to be transmitted to the receiving terminal. When QKD system is provided with n light sources with different wavelengths and m multi-core fibers, n*m quantum key distribution lines can be accommodated, and the encoding rate is n*m times of that of an original single QKD system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a point-to-point QKD technology, in particular to a point-to-point QKD system with high coding rate, a transmitting end, a receiving end and a QKD method. Background technique [0002] Quantum communication is a new technology that combines quantum mechanics and cryptanalysis. Its security is guaranteed by the basic principles of quantum mechanics - Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and quantum non-cloning theorem, which can ensure the security of key distribution and transmission. Therefore, it has been highly valued by governments and military departments of various countries, and many research institutions have carried out a lot of research on quantum communication. Quantum communication research includes quantum key distribution (QKD), quantum storage and relay, quantum digital signature, quantum coding, quantum secret sharing, quantum secure computing protocol, etc., among which QKD is the core research content, and it is...
