Description

Synchronous optical detection and monitoring correction system of QKD
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of quantum key synchronous detection and monitoring, in particular to a QKD synchronous light detection and monitoring correction system.
Background
QKD (quantum key distribution) systems use quantum mechanical properties to ensure communication security. It enables both parties to the communication to generate and share a random, secure key to encrypt and decrypt messages. With the forward advancement of quantum technology, synchronization performance is always one of the important indicators for measuring the merits of QKD systems. Synchronization means that the sending end Alice and the receiving end Bob synchronize information. In a strict sense, synchronization refers to the strict synchronization of the rising edge of a signal with the rising edge of a synchronization signal. In today's QKD systems, a single photon is the carrier information that serves as a key, and since a single photon is an extremely weak light, the time of arrival of a synchronous light pulse at Bob's end is needed as a reference during transmission to measure the time of arrival of the single photon signal at Bob's end. The advantages of the synchronous system such as rapidness, high efficiency, low delay, low noise interference, low power consumption and the like can meet the requirements of synchronous optical detection and signal frequency recovery. Therefore, a multi-channel synchronous output laser light source system which is improved in the prior art and has better precision and ensures the safety of the system is required.
Transmission of a synchronization optical signal in a QKD system as shown in fig. 1, in a quantum key distribution system, the synchronization optical pulse is a strong light. Due to the physical characteristics of the equipment, the external conditions of a transmission channel, transmission delay, crosstalk between a synchronous optical signal and signal light and other objective factors, intensity fluctuation and phase deviation of synchronous optical pulses can be caused, discrimination judgment of a synchronous optical detection system at the Bob end is interfered, and deviation exists in output time of the synchronous optical detection system, and the time deviation is called synchronous error. The synchronization error may cause the subsequent single photon detector to not detect the signal photon within a predetermined time, resulting in reduced system efficiency and increased bit error rate. Therefore, the synchronization error of the signals is reduced, and the overall performance of the quantum key distribution system can be improved. The synchronous optical detection system at the Bob end needs to detect and monitor the synchronous optical signals in real time, improves the accuracy of synchronous clock signal output, reduces synchronous errors and reduces error rate.
As a result of interference that may occur in the transmission of the synchronization light pulses, as shown in fig. 2, the first line pulse sequence represents the transmission of a synchronization light pulse pattern at Alice's end in the QKD system. And the second, third and fourth rows of Bob end synchronous light pulse receiving diagrams. The Bob receives the synchronous light pulse to have the phenomena of delay, attenuation, overshoot and the like, and is mainly interfered by transmission. And (3) injection: the third and fourth rows of red pulses represent synchronous light pulses with perfect sending ends, are arranged for visually representing overshoot and attenuation phenomena, and mainly play a role in comparison.
The synchronous optical pulse is transmitted in a channel, is influenced by delay, overshoot and attenuation, and the output waveform of the synchronous optical detection system at the Bob end is as shown in the figure:
as shown in fig. 3, synchronous optical pulses with different interference degrees generate different synchronous clock sequences at Bob end, and have errors from normal pulses. Therefore, high-precision synchronous light detection determines the working efficiency of a subsequent circuit and the stability of a system.
The existing synchronous light detection is mainly realized by detecting the existence of synchronous light through an optical coupler and a multistage amplifying circuit, is easily influenced by external environment light, has poor signal to noise ratio, smaller working bandwidth, influences the transmission rate of a channel, is complicated to debug, and has more devices required by a system, high circuit design complexity, high cost and poor portability.
Therefore, there is a need for further improvements in the prior art to provide a synchronous optical detection and monitoring system, which can efficiently and precisely implement synchronous optical detection and monitoring correction, recover a strictly synchronous clock signal, and improve the working efficiency and the bitrate of the QKD system. The circuit is simple and reliable, strong in flexibility and low in cost.

If the input voltage approaches the threshold value (in this example 0.0V) from the negative direction, the comparator will switch from a low level to a high level when the input crosses +vh/2. The new switching threshold becomes-VH/2. The comparator remains high until the threshold-VH/2 is crossed from the positive direction. In this way, noise centered at the 0.0V input does not cause the comparator to switch states unless it exceeds the region bounded by + -VH/2.
