Multicarrier Multiplexing Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution at Terahertz Bands Under Indoor Environment and in Inter-Satellite Links Communication

We propose a continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CVQKD) scheme at terahertz (THz) bands based on multicarrier multiplexing (MCM) technology. In this scheme, multiple Gaussian modulated subcarriers are coupled to transmit multipath superposed thermal Gaussian states. At the receiver, optica...
