Continuous-Variable Multi-User Quantum Key Distribution for 5G and distributed storage applications
Project goals
The methods developed in this project will constitute first steps towards a future deployment of quantum key distribution in access networks. The Applications to be demonstrated here will be door openers to other future multi-user scenarios like distributed computing. Finally, it may enable quantum-safe cryptography for end-users over fiber-to-the home.
