摘要
An available trick to mitigate the interference of environmental noise in quantum communications is to modulate signals with time-polarization multiplexing. Conversely, due to effects of the atmospheric turbulence in free space, the polarization of signals fluctuates randomly, resulting in feasible information leakage when direct polarization demultiplexing is carried out at the receiver, drowning out the noise-contained signals. For enhancing the practical security of the continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CVQKD), we propose a machine learning (ML) approach for optimization of the dynamic polarization control (DPC) of signals transmitted through atmospheric turbulence. An optimal DPC scheme can be adaptively adjusted with ML algorithms, which is based on the received signals at the receiver for solving the loophole problem of information leakage since it provides an accurate response to the polarization changes regarding the anamorphic signals. The performance of the CVQKD system can be increased in terms of secret key rates and maximal transmission distance as well. Numerical simulation shows the positive effect of the ML-based DPC while taking into account the secret key rate of the CVQKD system. The ML-based DPC effectively reduces the feasibility of information leakage and hence results in an increased secret key rate of the practical CVQKD system.
