Continuous-variable Quantum Key Distribution protocols with eight-state discrete modulation

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

We propose a continuous variable quantum key distribution protocol based on discrete modulation of eight-state coherent states. We present a rigorous security proof against the collective attacks considering both of realistic lossy, noisy quantum channels, imperfect detector efficiency, and detector electronic noise. This protocol shows high tolerance against excess noise and it is promising to achieve hundreds distance long in optical fiber base.
