Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a device for quantum key distribution and passive optical access network fusion. According to the method and the device, wave dividing and wave combining are performed when a quantum signal passes through a light dividing point, and furthermore the quantum signal bypasses an optical splitter, thereby preventing a light splitting loss caused by the optical splitter, and settling a problem that a splitting ratio restrains a transmission distance. Furthermore, a signal-to-noise ratio of QKD (quantum key distribution) is increased, thereby improving code forming rate of QKD and other performance indexes. WDM(wavelength division multiplexing) technology is utilized. The quantum signal is transmitted on an optical fiber which originally bears a classical channel. An optical fiber resource is saved. Furthermore a foundation is laid for large-scale engineering and practicalization in quantum communication.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical fiber transmission quantum communication, in particular to a method and device for quantum key distribution and passive optical access network integration. Background technique [0002] Quantum communication is an emerging interdisciplinary subject combining quantum mechanics and information theory, which mainly uses quantum entanglement effect for information transmission. Quantum communication includes research directions such as quantum key distribution, quantum secure direct communication, quantum identity authentication, etc., and quantum key distribution is the research focus, and it is also the first subject direction to move towards experimental demonstration verification and engineering practicality. Since quantum key distribution is based on the basic principles of quantum mechanics, coupled with the "one-time pad" communication method, it is impossible for any cryptanalyst subject to th...
