| Pushing quantum optical receiver technology towards satellite-mediated global quantum key distribution | QCRYPT 2013 | Brendon Higgins, Jean-Philippe Bourgoin, Nikolay Gigov, Zhizhong Yan, Thomas Jennewein |
Orbiting satellites can be utilized to go beyond distance limitations of ground-based QKD. We discuss various efforts underway to develop and demonstrate the readiness of technologies that would comprise a satellite acting as a trusted-node receiver. We perform thorough link analysis to optimize the configuration of our apparatus, assess the requirements of optical polarization frame alignment protocol, and demonstrate QKD in a high-loss regime (up to 57 dB). We discuss ongoing work towards demonstrations of QKD with receiver on a moving platform, as well as potential applications of high-loss QKD for convenient short-distance QKD by transmission using polarization-preserving diffusive screens. |
