In this paper, we propose how to simply construct a pair of linear codes for the BB84 quantum key distribution protocol. This protocol allows unconditional security in the presence of an eavesdropper, and the pair of linear codes is used for error correction and privacy amplification. Since their high decoding performance implies low eavesdropper's mutual information, good design of the two codes is required. The proposed method admits using arbitrary low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. Therefore, it has low complexity and high performance for hardware implementation. Simulation results show that the pair of codes performs well against practical and various noise levels.

    A proposed protocol wraps CSS-coded qubits in three-stage secret rotations, but the final measurement step limits it to key distribution rather than the claimed arbitrary-qubit transmission.
