Protection Schemes for Key Service in Optical Networks Secured by Quantum Key Distribution (QKD)

Quantum key distribution (QKD) is considered a secure solution for key distribution and applied in optical networks to overcome security issues by providing key services in different lightpaths. In optical networks, lightpaths in fibers can be used for the delivery of QKD due to their good ...
