Studying free-space transmission statistics and improving free-space quantum key distribution in the turbulent atmosphere
The statistical fluctuations in free-space links in the turbulent atmosphere are important for the distribution of quantum signals. To that end, we first study statistics generated by the turbulent atmosphere in an entanglement-based free-space quantum key distribution (QKD) system. Using the insigh...
