And (3) encoding the quantum bit: the Alice control end and Bob user end 5 perform phase deflection modulation on the orbital angular momentum of the signal light and the idle light by using an orbital angular momentum modulation unit, for example: the Alice control terminal deflects the orbital angular momentum by an orientation angle thetasModulation is pi/4, Bob user terminal 5 randomly modulates the deflection phase orientation angle theta of orbital angular momentumIThe modulation is pi/8 and pi/4.

And (3) forming a code by using the secret key, and restoring the coded secret key by using the Alice control terminal according to the measurement result, for example: the relative coincidence count value is '1', and the demodulation code is '0'; the relative coincidence count value is '0.5', and the demodulation code is '1'; the relative coincidence count value is "0", and the demodulation code "2". A random codebook sequence of 0, 1, 2 is established as the codebook. The following equations (10) and (11) show that: the coincidence counting function is in cosine square relation with the difference of the orbital angular momentum state deflection orientation angles of the signal light and the idle light. By using the coincidence counting method, the Alice control end and the Bob user end 5 can distribute the quantum key, and the basic idea is as follows: alice one end keeps the deflection orientation angle theta of the modulation orbital angular momentum statesThe deflection orientation angle theta of the orbital angular momentum state is modulated in real time at Bob client 5 without changing (for example, the orientation can be fixed to pi/4)IAnd finally, the Alice recovers the secret key coded by the Bob user terminal 5 from different relative coincidence counting values.

As shown in fig. 2, Alice's control end manipulates the OAM state of signal photons only in its private domain, as does Bob's user end 5, which handles the OAM state of idle light. In these private areas, the eavesdropper Eve has no chance of getting exposed to photons. Of course, an eavesdropper Eve still has the opportunity to eavesdrop when Alice's control end transmits photons to Bob's user end 5 in free space. The eavesdropper Eve intercepts and measures each idle light, prepares a new photon according to the measurement result, and then retransmits the new photon to the Bob client 5. However, since the idle light and the signal light are in an entangled state, photons remaining after an Eve attack by an eavesdropper will not satisfy equations (10) and (11). Moreover, the Alice control end always has signal light, and the attack behavior of Eve can be detected through the CHSH inequality.
S=|E(θsI)-E(θs,θ'I)+E(θ'SI)+E(θ'S,θ'I)|≤2 (12)
E (θ) heresI) From the coincidence count we obtain:
Figure BDA0002352484130000122
if the inequality exists, entanglement will be preserved, and Alice control can ensure that the channel is free from attack.
