Abstract
Information reconciliation in the continuousvariable quantum key distribution (CVQKD) plays a vital role on affecting secret key rate as well as maximum transmission distance. It is necessary to search good error-correcting codes in order to improve the performance of reconciliation efficiency. In this work, we construct Quasi-Cyclic (QC) low-density paritycheck (LDPC) codes based on LDPC codes in the digital video broadcasting second generation terrestrial (DVB-T2) standard, and then combine these codes with information reconciliation in the CVQKD system, which can extremely ameliorate the performance of secret key rate and maximum transmission distance. The simulation results show that our proposed QC-LDPC codes can achieve higher reconciliation efficiency of 93.05% compare to DVB-T2 LDPC codes, which means our proposed QC-LDPC codes can obtain better performance of secret key rate and longer maximum transmission distance.
