Subcarrier Wave Quantum Key Distribution in Telecommunication Network with Bitrate 800 kbit/s

In the course of work on creating the first quantum communication network in Russia we demonstrated quantum key distribution in metropolitan optical network infrastructure. A single-pass subcarrier wave quantum cryptography scheme was used in the experiments. BB84 protocol with strong reference was chosen for performing key distribution. The registered sifted key rate in an optical cable with 1.5 dB loss was 800 Kbit/s. Signal visibility exceeded 98%, and quantum bit error rate value was 1%. The achieved result is a record for this type of systems

Atmosphere channel for “last mile problem” in quantum communication

The work is devoted to the creation of a telescopic transceiver system that organizes an atmospheric point-to-point communication channel, and its use for quantum communication at sideband frequencies as the “last mile” for data protection in a geographically distributed data centr
