| QUBE - A CubeSat mission to demonstrate new building blocks for satellite based quantum key distribution | QCRYPT 2024 | regular | Jonas Pudelko, Michael Auer, Adomas Baliuka, Ömer Bayraktar, Moritz Birkhold, Peter Freiwang, Matthias Grünefeld, Roland Haber, Martin Hutterer, Janko Janusch, Imran Khan, Lukas Knips, Norbert Lemke, Christoph Marquardt, Florian Moll, Benjamin Rödiger, Klaus Schilling, Christopher Schmidt, Bhardwaj Shastri, Karina Szych, Joost Vermeer, Paul Wagner, Harald Weinfurter |
The CubeSat mission QUBE aims to evaluate novel, miniaturized Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) building blocks in space including an optical downlink to an optical ground station. The mission will be launched in July 2024 and will provide important insights into new technology which potentially could form the backbone of a cost-effective satellite based QKD system on a global scale. |

| Ground-to-ground tests for the QKD pathfinder satellite mission QUBE | QCRYPT 2024 | Moritz Birkhold, Adomas Baliuka, Michael Auer, Harald Weinfurter, Paul Wagner, Benjamin Rödiger, Florian Moll, Jonas Pudelko, Joost Vermeer, Christoph Marquardt, Lukas Knips |
To establish a reliable Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) link from a satellite in low-earth orbit (LEO) to a ground station, a series of ground-to-ground tests are essential. These tests, varying in distance and objectives, are for fine-tuning both the sender and receiver systems to address the unique challenges of satellite communications. We detail the methods and outcomes of progressively complex QKD tests, for the different components of the satellite and ground station. The experiments clearly show the performance of the quantum optics payload as well as the capability of the QKD receiver and the optical ground station (OGS). |
