Sending or Not-Sending Twin-Field Quantum Key Distribution with Flawed and Leaky Sources.

Twin-field quantum key distribution (TF-QKD) has attracted considerable attention and developed rapidly due to its ability to surpass the fundamental rate-distance limit of QKD. However, the device imperfections may compromise its practical implementations. The goal of this paper is to make it robust against the state preparation flaws (SPFs) and side channels at the light source.

Device-independent quantum key distribution (DIQKD) exploits the violation of a Bell inequality to extract secure keys even if users' devices are untrusted. Currently, all DIQKD protocols suffer from the secret key capacity bound, i.e.

The phase-matching quantum key distribution (PM-QKD), one of the variants of Twin-Field (TF) QKD protocol, was recently proposed to overcome the rate-distance limits of point to point protocol without quantum repeaters. In this paper, we propose a more practical PM-QKD protocol version with four-intensity decoy states and source errors, since neither the infinite decoy states nor the precise control of the light source is available in practice. We present the formulation of the secure key rate of the proposed protocol and analyze the performances of the protocol with and without source errors by numerical simulations.

Free-space quantum key distribution (QKD) based on mobile platforms, such as satellites, drones, and vehicles, is considered a promising way to overcome the rate-distance limit without a quantum repeater. Real-time reference frame calibration is required in most recent implemented polarization encoded QKD systems due to the relative motion between sender and receiver. Although active compensations can be used to calibrate the reference frame, doing so increases the complexity of the system and reduces the key rate.
