| Software tool for the performance evaluation of satellite quantum key distribution links | QCRYPT 2021 | Andrea Stanco, Giulio Foletto, Alessia Scriminich, Lorenzo Dal Corso, Luca Canzian, Francesco Petroni, Giuseppe Piscopiello, Gilles Mariotti, Giuseppe Vallone, Paolo Villoresi |
The 18-month project called PROtocols for Space sEcure Quantum cOmmunication (PROSEQO), funded by the European Space Agency, was coordinated by the University of Padova with Sitael and Qascom as industrial partners. The scope of the project was to assess the protocols feasible for Satellite QKD and then realize an analytical model to describe all the elements that contribute to the Secret Key Rate (SKR). The analytical model was integrated in a dedicated software able to get several input parameters and orbit descriptions and calculate the final SKR. The software was tested in 10 different case studies. Therefore, this can be a useful tool for future Satellite QKD missions as a preliminary step to evaluate mission feasibility. It could also be the starting point for a numerical overview on the practicability of a satellite QKD infrastructure. |
