Abstract
En 中文
Information reconciliation is crucial for continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV QKD) because its performance affects the secret key rate and maximal secure transmission distance. Fixed-rate error-correction codes limit the potential applications of the CV QKD because of the difficulty of optimizing such codes for different low SNRs. In this Paper, we propose a rateless reconciliation protocol combined multidimensional scheme with Raptor codes that not only maintains the rateless property but also achieves high efficiency in different SNRs using just one degree distribution. It significantly decreases the complexity of optimization and increases the robustness of the system. Using this protocol, the CV QKD system can operate with the optimal modulation variance, which maximizes the secret key rate. Simulation results show that the proposed protocol can achieve reconciliation efficiency of more than 95% within the range of SNR from -20 to 0 dB. It also shows that we can obtain a high secret key rate at arbitrary distances in a certain range and achieve a secret key rate of about 5 x 10(-4) bits/pulse at a maximum distance of 132 km (corresponding SNR is -20 dB) that is higher than previous works. The proposed protocol can maintain highly efficient key extraction under the wide range of SNRs and paves the way toward the practical application of CV QKD systems in flexible scenarios.
