Abstract
In continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD), the performance of the information reconciliation (IR) step is critical for the achievable secret key rate (SKR) and transmission distance. We show how to improve on the recently introduced implementation of an IR-protocol involving multiple decoding attempts (MDA) and validate the method on simulated data in different application scenarios. Throughout, we demonstrate meaningful SKR-gains compared to both the standard protocol of a single decoding attempt and to the original MDA-implementation, even at given decoding complexity.
