Problems solved by technology

However, this kind of interference ring has a large loss, and the insertion loss of the phase modulator is one of the main factors causing the large loss. When the phase modulator is placed in one arm of the interference ring, the light pulse will pass through the phase modulator due to back and forth transmission. Twice, resulting in a large loss of the interference ring, the system efficiency is low

[0073] The polarization beam splitter 301 polarizes and splits one input light pulse into two transmission light pulses. One transmission optical pulse undergoes phase decoding by the phase decoder 302 to obtain two sub-output optical pulses; the other transmission optical pulse undergoes phase decoding by the phase decoder 303 to obtain the other two sub-output optical pulses. One output optical pulse of the phase decoder 302 and one output optical pulse of the phase decoder 303 are combined into an output through the polarization beam combiner 304; the other output optical pulse of the phase decoder 302 and the output optical pulse of the phase decoder 303 The other output light pulses are combined ...

Abstract

The invention provides a phase decoding method, a phase decoding device and a quantum secret key distribution system. The method includes splitting an incident input light pulse into a first transmission light pulse and a second transmission light pulse through polarization; performing phase decoding on the first transmission light pulse and the second transmission light pulse respectively, wherein two sub output light pulses are acquired after phase decoding of each transmission light pulse; combing any sub output light pulse of the first transmission light pulse after phase decoding with anysub output light pulse of the second transmission light pulse after phase decoding into an output light pulse through polarization. By the method, influences of random light pulse polarization statechanges on system stability can be effectively solved, and stable phase decoding of environmental disturbance immunity of transmission optical fibers is realized. An unequal-arm Mach-Zundel interference ring is adopted, and light pulses only need to pass a phase modulator once during decoding, so that insertion losses of a receiving terminal are reduced greatly, and system efficiency is improved remarkably.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical transmission secure communication, in particular to a phase decoding method, device and quantum key distribution system. Background technique [0002] In the phase-encoded quantum key distribution system based on unequal arm interference rings, during the transmission of optical pulses in optical fiber quantum channels, there are non-ideal conditions such as non-circular symmetry in the cross-section of the optical fiber and uneven distribution of the core refractive index along the radial direction. , and the optical fiber is affected by temperature, strain, bending, etc. in the actual environment, resulting in birefringence effect. The increase and deterioration are obvious. In the prior art, an unequal-arm Faraday-Michelson interference ring is proposed, which can prevent the polarization state of the optical pulse from being affected by the random birefringence of the optical fiber channel, a...
