Abstract
An improved continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CVQKD) protocol is proposed to improve the performance of CVQKD system under the local oscillator intensity attack by using a suitable noiseless linear amplifier (NLA) at the destination. This method can enhance the efficiency of the CVQKD scheme in terms of the maximum transmission distance, no matter whether the direct or reverse reconciliation is used. Simulation results show that there is a considerable increase in the transmission distance for the NLA-based CVQKD by adjusting the values of the parameters.
