We present a pilot-assisted coherent intradyne reception methodology for CV-QKD with true local oscillator. An optically phase-locked reference tone, prepared using carrier-suppressed optical single-sideband modulation, is multiplexed in polarisation and frequency to the 250 Mbaud quantum signal in order to provide optical frequency- and phase matching between quantum signal and local oscillator. Our concept allows for high symbol rates and can be operated at an extremely low excess-noise level, as validated by experimental measurements.

  1. Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution with a Real Local Oscillator and without Auxiliary Signals

    quant-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A real-local-oscillator CV-QKD link is demonstrated for the first time without pilot tones, using a particle smoother that exploits the symbols Alice already reveals.
