相对于彼此移动的终端之间的自由空间量子密钥分发(QKD)链路提出了许多挑战。光束转向部件(通常是反射镜)和相对移动导致可变的双折射,并且对于特定配置,也将存在固定的双折射。本文提出了一种适合于实时操作的偏振校准方案。仿真和实验验证了该方案的有效性。
Free space Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) links between terminals that move relative to each other pose a number of challenges. The beam-steering components (typically mirrors) and the relative movement lead to variable birefringence, and for particular configuration there will also be fixed birefringence. The paper proposes a polarization calibration scheme suitable for real-time operation. Simulation and experiment are performed to verify the proposed scheme.
