Abstract

The aim is to analyze the efficiency of a communication method, Quantum key distribution. This newly popularized method of communication uses the principles of quantum mechanics. The simulation environment allows researchers to create complex network topologies and a high degree of control and repeatable experiments, allowing them to conduct studies and verify their outcomes. It would be costly to implement QKD in reality, which would need optical and Internet connections between network nodes and the verification of a certain network method or protocol. Thus, the performance analysis here is done in open-source software called NS-3 or Network Simulator- 3, which has an in-built module called QKD netsim for creating the quantum channel.
