This survey presents on the implementations of Quantum Noise Stream Cipher or Quantum Steam Cipher with various modulation formats – like QAM, PSK. FSK, etc., in optical fiber communication systems – along with other pertinent implementation details. Quantum Stream Cipher can be provably secure in information theoretical terms, and it achieves improved security due its inherent (noisy) randomness. This paper presents also a brief review on its claimed improved security, along with the open issues.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
