Free-running long-distance reference-frame-independent quantum key distribution by Bang-Ying Tang, Huan Chen, Ji-Peng Wang, Hui-Cun Yu, Lei Shi, Shi-Hai Sun, Wei Peng, Bo Liu, Wan-Rong Yu

“…Abstract Rapidly and randomly drifted reference frames will shorten the transmission distance and decrease the secure key rate of realistic quantum key distribution (QKD) systems. In this article, we present a free-running reference-frame-independent (RFI) QKD scheme, where measurement events are classified into multiple slices with similar estimated classification parameter. …”
