Abstract

Nowadays, quantum secure communication has been recognized as one of the most secure communication techniques, and plug-play scheme is one of the most practical case in QKD (quantum key distribution) experiment. This paper mainly introduces how to use FPGA (field programming gate array) to control the optical components in order to implement quantum key distribution system. The system works based on phase coding mode with optical pulse frequency being 10 MHz, communication distance being 50 km, code generating rate being 2 kbps and error rate being 10-6. Also we have developed an application software which can take text chat and secure file transmit for the QKD hardware system using Qt IDE on Linux OS.
