Next Speech: “QKD Over FSO Under Different Weather Conditions Using OptiSystem Software”

Compatibility:

 


 

Abstract – OptiSystem software is used to implement BB84 QKD protocol and enable transmission of coded bits over the FSO channel. The effect of the weather condition on the performance of the BB84 QKD system is investigated. QBER performance metric is used to measure the QKD system
