One-way information reconciliation schemes of quantum key distribution

arXiv:1201.1196

Abstract

Information reconciliation(IR) is a basic step of quantum key distribution (QKD). Classical message interaction is necessary in a practical IR scheme, and the communication complexity has become a bottleneck of QKD's development. Here we propose a concatenated method of IR scheme which requires only one time one-way communication to achieve any given error rate level. A QKD scheme with the concatenated IR can work without the special interaction of error rate estimation.
