Modeling of Quantum Key Distribution System for Secure Information Transfer
This chapter is an analysis of commercial quantum key distribution systems. Upon analysis, the general-
ized structure of QKDS with phase coding of a photon state is presented. The structure includes modules
that immediately participate in the task of distribution and processing of quantum states. Phases of key
sequence productions are studied. Expressions that allow the estimation of physical characteristics of
optoelectronic components, as well as information processing algorithms impact to rate of key sequence
production, are formed. Information security infrastructure can be utilized, for instance, to formulate
requirements to maximize tolerable error level in quantum channel with a given rate of key sequence
production
