Description

Continuous variable four-state quantum key distribution method and system
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of quantum key distribution, in particular to a continuous variable four-state quantum key distribution method and system.
Background
The quantum key distribution technology (hereinafter, referred to as QKD) is mainly divided into discrete variable quantum key distribution (hereinafter, referred to as DV-QKD) and continuous variable quantum key distribution (hereinafter, referred to as CV-QKD) according to implementation. DV-QKD encodes information on a certain degree of freedom of a single photon, and a single photon detector is used for detection during detection; CV-QKD encodes information on the canonical component of the light field, and the transmitted optical signal is detected with a homodyne measurement device.
The CV-QKD can adopt a Gaussian modulation mode in specific implementation, and the modulation mode modulates the regular component of the coherent state to make the coherent state in Gaussian distribution; in addition, there are discrete modulation methods, which usually make coherent states symmetrically distributed in phase space.
For quantum key distribution of continuous variable discrete modulation, a receiving end needs to measure a regular component of a signal light field after receiving a signal. The measurement mode can be divided into homodyne measurement and heterodyne measurement, wherein the homodyne measurement can be realized by applying a phase measurement regular momentum component p or a regular coordinate component q to local oscillator light every time, and 1-bit information can be generated by one signal light pulse; heterodyne measurement is a method of splitting light and measuring a regular momentum component p and a regular coordinate component q of a signal light field at the same time, and one signal light pulse can generate 2-bit information at one time.
There is currently a system (CN105024809A) for implementing CV-QKD by using gaussian modulation, which introduces means of negotiation algorithm, low noise detector and compensation algorithm to implement continuous variable quantum key distribution by using gaussian modulation, but the following drawbacks exist in the patent: 1. gaussian modulation requires continuous modulation of regular components of light during preparation of signal light, and is difficult to implement; 2. in order to modulate the light signal, the patent uses a continuous laser and an intensity modulator, which increases the complexity and difficulty of the system. In addition, under the condition of high noise, the conventional discrete modulation quantum key distribution protocol can only obtain a very low code rate when a receiving end uses homodyne measurement, which limits the transmission distance of the protocol, so that the practicability of the protocol is greatly reduced.

Example one
Fig. 1 shows an exemplary embodiment of a continuous variable four-state modulation quantum key distribution system for implementing the present invention. Information transmission and interaction between Alice and Bob are realized through the quantum channel module 9. Single mode fibers may be chosen as the choice of quantum channels without loss of generality.
As shown in fig. 1, the sending end Alice may include four modules, including a pulse laser module 1, a beam splitting module 2, a phase modulation module 3, and a beam combining module 4. According to the protocol to be realized by the invention, the Alice terminal prepares and sends the signal light and the local oscillator light. When the laser is prepared, firstly, the pulse laser module 1 emits laser pulses, the laser pulses enter the beam splitting module 2 through the left port of the beam splitting module 2, and then the pulses are divided into first laser pulses and second laser pulses with different intensities and are respectively output from the upper port and the right port. The first laser pulse output by the upper port enters the phase modulation module 3, is modulated into one of the four coherent signal lights, and then enters the upper port of the beam combining module 4; the second laser pulse output by the right port is used as local oscillation light and directly enters the left port of the beam combining module 4, and at the moment, the local oscillation light and the signal light are not overlapped in time domain. Two laser pulses are output from the right port of the beam combination module 4 and enter the quantum channel module 9.
According to the principle of the continuous variable four-state modulation quantum key distribution protocol implemented by the present invention, the pulse laser module 1 is used for generating optical pulses with high extinction ratio. Preferably, an internal modulation laser or an electro-absorption modulation laser can be selected as the pulse laser light source, but an intensity modulator can be added after the pulse laser light source in order to further remove stray light carried in the light pulse emitted by the pulse laser and ensure that the amplitude of the light pulse generated by the pulse laser is stable.
And the beam splitting module 2 is used for splitting the pulse laser emitted by the pulse laser module 1 according to a larger proportion. But not limited to, a beam splitter (hereinafter BS) or a combination of a phase retarder plus a polarizing beam splitter (hereinafter PBS) with a splitting ratio of 999: 1. without loss of generality, a fixed attenuator may be added in the path that the signal light pulse travels, which serves to attenuate the intensity of the signal light pulse to a desired level.
The phase modulation module 3 is used for performing phase modulation on the signal light pulse, and can complete preparation of four coherent states without amplitude modulation.
And the beam combining module 4 is configured to combine the modulated signal light and the local oscillator light, and send the combined signal light and local oscillator light to a quantum channel for transmission. Preferably, a polarization-maintaining polarization beam splitter may be selected, but is not limited to, that may transmit the local oscillator light in the horizontal polarization directly into the quantum channel, while rotating the signal light in the horizontal polarization ninety degrees to the vertical polarization, which is reflected into the quantum channel. This process makes the local oscillator light distinguishable from the signal light in the degree of freedom of polarization.
The receiving end Bob may include four modules, including a polarization control module 5, a beam splitting module 6, a phase modulation module 7, and a homodyne measurement module 8. The signal light pulse and the local oscillation light pulse prepared by the sending end reach a Bob receiving end after being transmitted by the quantum channel module 9, firstly pass through the polarization control module 5, then reach a left port of the beam splitting module 6, according to the different polarization states of the signal light pulse and the local oscillation light, the signal light is output from the right port of the beam splitting module 6, the local oscillation light is output from the upper port of the module 6, enters the phase modulation module 7, and finally the signal light and the local oscillation light coincide again in the time domain and simultaneously reach the homodyne measurement module 8.
The polarization control module 5 is configured to adjust polarization states of the signal light and the local oscillator light in the quantum channel, so that the polarization states of the signal light and the local oscillator light are recalibrated. The polarization state can be feedback controlled by, but not limited to, an electrically controlled polarization controller.
And the beam splitting module 6 is used for splitting the signal light and the local oscillator light with different polarizations into two paths. Preferably, a polarization-maintaining polarization beam splitter may be selected, but not limited to, and the polarization-maintaining polarization beam splitter may split the signal light and the local oscillation light having different polarizations into two paths, and simultaneously rotate the polarization of the local oscillation light by ninety degrees, which makes the local oscillation light coincide with the polarization of the signal light.
The phase modulation module 7 is configured to add a phase 0 or pi/2 to the local oscillator light pulse at random, and measure different regular components in the homodyne measurement module correspondingly.
And the homodyne measurement module 8 is configured to perform homodyne measurement operation on the signal optical pulse and the local oscillator optical pulse from the sending end Alice.
The principle of implementing continuous variable four-state quantum key distribution in the present embodiment will now be described with reference to specific devices. In this example, module 1 comprises a pulsed laser (preferably an intensity modulator may be added), and module 2 comprises a beam splitting ratio of 999: 1 (an attenuator may preferably be added), module 3 comprises a phase modulator, module 4 comprises a polarization maintaining PBS, module 5 comprises an electrically controlled polarization controller, module 6 comprises a polarization maintaining PBS, module 7 comprises a phase modulator, module 8 comprises a set of homodyne measurement devices, and module 9 comprises single mode fiber. The method comprises the following implementation steps:
randomly preparing four coherent states by Alice. The preparation process comprises the following steps:
(1) firstly, a pulse laser generates laser pulses at an Alice end, and stray light in the generated laser pulses is removed through an intensity modulator;
(2) the outgoing light pulse passes 999: the BS of the 1 is divided into two paths of LO and signal light, and the signal light is further attenuated by the intensity of an attenuator;
(3) the signal light passes through a phase modulator, a random number generator generates random numbers according to probability distribution [ q1, q2, q3, q4], q1 is q2, q3 is q4, q1+ q2+ q3+ q4 is 1, the generated random numbers respectively correspond to four coherent states { | s >, | -s >, | is >, | -is > } (s is a real number, preferably 0.4 can be taken), coherent states needing to be prepared are determined according to the result of the random number generator, the signal light is modulated to prepare corresponding coherent states, the intensities of the four coherent states are the same, and the amplitude of the signal light does not need to be additionally modulated;
(4) the signal light and the local oscillator light are combined through the polarization-maintaining polarization beam splitter, and the polarization of the signal light and the local oscillator light is in a mutually vertical state at the moment, and then the signal light and the local oscillator light enter the single-mode optical fiber for transmission.
And 2, receiving the local oscillation light and the signal light which are sent by the Alice end and transmitted through the single-mode optical fiber by the Bob end, and measuring the coherent state prepared by the Alice. The measurement process is as follows:
(1) because the local oscillator light and the signal light can generate polarization drift in the single-mode optical fiber, the polarization of the local oscillator light and the signal light is aligned with a subsequent device by performing feedback control through the electric control polarization controller;
(2) the local oscillation light is reflected after entering the polarization-maintaining polarization beam splitter, and simultaneously the polarization is rotated by ninety degrees, the phase applied by the phase modulator is determined to be 0 or pi/2 according to the result of the random number generator, and then the regular component of the signal light is determined to be measured, if the applied phase is 0, the measured regular coordinate is shown, and if the applied phase is pi/2, the measured regular momentum is shown;
(3) the local oscillator light and the signal light enter the homodyne measuring device at the same time for measurement.
3. After repeating the above steps for N times (N is a positive integer), Alice and Bob communicate through an authenticated classical channel, Alice obtains the selection condition of the regular component sent by Bob, data when the Alice sends the same coherent state and Bob respectively measures the regular coordinate and the regular momentum are grouped into the same group, and Bob is only told through the classical channel which two groups of data can be regarded as the same group.
4. The method estimates the code rate by using a numerical simulation convex optimization algorithm through published information, if the code rate shows that a key can be generated, the protocol is continuously executed, otherwise, the execution of the protocol is interrupted, and the protocol is directly abandoned. If the protocol can be continued, Alice and Bob respectively complete key mapping to form an original key.
The specific steps of estimating the bit rate by adopting a numerical simulation convex optimization algorithm are as follows:
the code rate calculation formula is constructed as follows:

In this example, modules 1, 2, 3 each comprise a pulsed laser, modules 4 and 6 comprise a circulator, module 5 comprises a BS, module 7 comprises a polarization maintaining PBS, and the remaining modules are illustrated as corresponding modules in embodiment one.
First, Alice randomly prepares four coherent states, and the probability distribution of the random numbers and the corresponding coherent states are the same as those in the previous embodiment. Here, the method of internal modulation is used for preparing the four coherent states, and the method directly performs phase modulation by applying perturbation to the loading voltage of the main laser without an additional phase modulation instrument. The process for preparing coherent state by internal modulation is as follows:
(1) the pulse laser at the master laser module 2 generates broad laser pulses, and fig. 4 shows the time domain relationship of the electrical pulse signals applied to the master laser and the two slave lasers in one period in an internal modulation case, and the figure only shows the principle qualitatively, and does not represent the real quantitative relationship. When the main laser is applied with voltage to generate light pulse, a wide pulse voltage is needed, and a small perturbation (shown as a main laser part in fig. 4) is applied to the middle of the applied pulse voltage, the voltage perturbation will cause the central frequency of the laser pulse generated by the main laser to generate offset, so that the phase of the laser pulse is changed along with the evolution of time, the offset can be controlled by changing the magnitude of the perturbation, and the phase difference generated by the offset corresponds to the phase of the continuous variable modulation four-state, namely 0, pi/2, pi, 3 pi/2;
(2) light pulse emitted by the main laser is split into local oscillation light and signal light by the BS, and the local oscillation light and the signal light respectively enter the two circulators;
(3) when a pulse voltage is applied to the slave laser at the module 1, a pulse voltage with a short pulse width should be selected, and this pulse voltage should be located after (or before) the perturbation of the wide pulse emitted by the master laser in the time domain, if before the perturbation, the coherent state corresponding to the modulated phase needs to be adjusted accordingly, because the phase difference between the signal light and the local oscillator light changes at this time), as in the slave laser module 1 of fig. 4, but the pulse voltage should still fall in the wide pulse in the time domain;
(4) the requirements in applying a pulse voltage to the slave laser at module 3 are similar to those in step (3), but this electrical pulse should be located before (or after) the wide pulse in the time domain, as in the slave laser module 3 part of fig. 4, in exactly tandem with the pulse in (3);
(5) and the signal light and the local oscillator light which complete information modulation enter a quantum channel through the polarization maintaining PBS and are transmitted to a receiving end Bob together.
The subsequent steps are the same as those in the first embodiment, and are not described again.
The above description is only of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and it should be noted that: it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and adaptations can be made without departing from the principles of the invention and these are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
