Improved finite-size effects in QKD protocols with applications to decoy-state QKD
This is a public version of the code used in Improved finite-size effects in QKD protocols with applications to decoy-state QKD [ArXiv]. This was built for v2.0.2 of the Open QKD Security package.
The data in Figures 2 - 6 is created by running the following files:
| Figure | Files |
| ------------- | ------------- |
| Fig. 2 | mainFiniteLossyQubitBB84ExpecRate.m |
| Fig. 3 | mainFiniteLossyQubitBB84.m |
| Fig. 4 | Key rates using 1-norm constraints run mainFiniteLossyQubit1Norm.m,
Key rates using entrywise constraints run mainFiniteLossyQubitBB84.m |
| Fig. 5 | mainFiniteDecoyBB84.m |
| Fig. 6 | FourSixAdaptiveMain_DifInt.m,
Switch between iid and ps needs to be done in preset FourSixWCPDifInt_AdaptivePreset.m. Both the symbolic and statistics toolbox are required. |
The folder '4-6Protocol' contains the fixed-length version of the variable-length 4-6 protocol, presented in section IX.A.
