Integration of quantum key distribution and gigabit-capable passive optical network based on wavelength-division multiplexing
Integration of quantum key distribution and gigabit-capable passive optical network based on wavelength-division multiplexing
Classical optical communications may be still the main communications technology for the foreseeable future, so integration of the quantum communication network with existing classical optical communication network is necessary because existing telecommunications infrastructure will be shared. This means multiplexing of quantum key distribution (QKD) and strong classical data signals, delivering …
