This means the security is independent of all future advances in algorithm or computational power. However, due to the non-availability of single-photon sources, most traditional QKD protocols are vulnerable to various attacks, such as photon number-splitting (PNS) attacks. Also, the imperfections in the measuring devices open a loophole for side channels that an eavesdropper may exploit to launch attacks such as large-pulse attacks. As a result, this compromises the security of transmitted information. To address these challenges, the authors present a QKD protocol that is secure against both large-pulse attacks and PNS attacks at zero-error, in which the eavesdropper does not introduce any error, but still, the legitimate users of the system cannot distil a secure key. A notable feature of the proposed protocol is that it promotes greater robustness against both attacks than the Bennett-Brassard 1984 (BB84) protocol or the Scarani-Acin-Ribordy-Gisin 2004 (SARG04) protocol.","PeriodicalId":100651,"journal":{"name":"IET Quantum Communication","volume":"5 3","pages":"282-290"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/qtc2.12089","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139844807","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the limitation of resources often leads to the quantum channels constructed by distributed entangled pairs being incompatible with the transmitted states. In order to overcome this problem, a novel Joint Remote State Preparation protocol was proposed for transmitting general multi-qudit states over quantum networks, providing a promising pathway to utilise the available Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) channels with different levels. Several scenarios under noisy environments were discussed and some properties of the fidelity when transmitting the multi-qudit state were demonstrated. It was demonstrated that both the prepared state and the kind of the noises could restrict the number of the participant nodes. Our scheme leverages the existing quantum resources, which addresses the issue of insufficient entanglement resources. This approach is easily adaptable to other quantum network structures, offering a potential solution for constructing a universal quantum network.","PeriodicalId":100651,"journal":{"name":"IET Quantum Communication","volume":"5 2","pages":"173-184"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/qtc2.12084","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140491675","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It can provide ultra-secure key distribution with security guaranteed by the laws of quantum physics. Quantum key distribution is necessary to protect data transmission from quantum computing attacks in future communication networks. The laws of quantum mechanics dictate that as opposed to microwave frequencies, quantum coherence is preserved at room temperatures for terahertz (THz) frequencies. This makes the THz band a promising solution for room-temperature QKD implementation in future wireless communication networks. The authors present the principles of continuous variable QKD (CV-QKD) systems and review the latest developments in the design and analysis of CV-QKD systems operating at microwave and THz frequencies. The authors also discuss how multiple-input multiple-output transmission can be incorporated into the quantum communications framework to improve the secret key rates and increase the coverage distances of the THz CV-QKD system. Furthermore, major hardware challenges that must be surmounted to practically realise THz CV-QKD systems are highlighted.","PeriodicalId":100651,"journal":{"name":"IET Quantum Communication","volume":"5 4","pages":"450-461"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/qtc2.12085","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139530935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, efficient allocation of network resources during routing and resource assignment is important to minimise the impact of time slot fragmentation in the quantum signal channel (QSCh) of QKD-enabled ONs. The authors address the fragmentation problem in the QSCh and propose a new fragmentation-suppressed routing and resource assignment (FS-RRA) approach. To evaluate the performance and to analyse the effect of time slot fragmentation in QSCh of QKD-enabled ONs, the proposed FS-RRA approach is compared with two existing resource assignment approaches, namely, the first-fit (FF) and random-fit (RF) for two different networks. Simulation results show that the proposed approach reduces fragmentation by 2.97% and 6.69% for NSFNET and 1.77% and 5.91% for UBN24 in terms of external fragmentation compared to FF and RF, respectively. Furthermore, the proposed approach reduces blocking by 4.03% and 14.28% for NSFNET and 2.61% and 13.44% for UBN24 and improves resource utilisation up to 3.44% and 5.96% for NSFNET and 3.08% and 7.64% for UBN24 compared to FF and RF, respectively.","PeriodicalId":100651,"journal":{"name":"IET Quantum Communication","volume":"5 2","pages":"164-172"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/qtc2.12083","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139532928","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Soon Joe generator made the Graviton set behave as free relativistic quantum particles. The current and voltage generated when the LED was turned on and off were measured five times. Measurements were made in units of 1/1000 of a second, and the measured data were summed. In the LED off-state, the average current was −2.87E-03 (A), and the average voltage was −1.44E-01 (V) in VH and 6.83E-01 (V) in VL. The average current in the LED on-stage was −4.28E-03, the VH was 2.14E-01, and the VL was 6.57E-01. The voltage difference was −8.27E-01 in the off-stage and −8.71E-01 in the on-stage. Less current was generated in the off-stage, with less voltage difference. In this experiment, we confirmed that the graviton generates the current, and with the photons, more current is generated. This explains why the interactive induction protocol of gravitons or photons can be used to experiment with the magnetic field's ability to communicate or transfer energy with relativistic quantum particles. The gravitoelectric effect explains the photoelectric effect elements, and graviton has induced electricity as a physical entity in the magnetic sea.","PeriodicalId":100651,"journal":{"name":"IET Quantum Communication","volume":"5 2","pages":"185-195"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2023-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/qtc2.12082","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139164644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work presents a general mathematical model considering device imperfections and various sources of errors for estimating signal QBER in polarisation encoded satellite-based QKD systems. QBER performance for satellite-to-ground downlink scenarios has been investigated for multiple sky brightness conditions (day time and night time operations), two operating wavebands: 800 and 1550 nm as well as for different quantum transmitter and quantum receiver architectures. Further, a novel QBER estimation analysis for inter-satellite QKD links has also been presented. The estimation results obtained from the developed model have been validated against and found in good agreement with the measured results of the only reported satellite-to-ground QKD experiments till date.
