Adaptive real time selection for quantum key distribution in lossy and turbulent free-space channels
Adaptive real time selection for quantum key distribution in lossy and turbulent free-space channels
The unconditional security in the creation of cryptographic keys obtained by quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols will induce a quantum leap in free-space communication privacy in the same way that we are beginning to realize secure optical fiber connections. However, free-space channels, in particular those with long links and the …
