Security Analysis of Discrete-Modulated Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution over Seawater Channel

We investigate the optical absorption and scattering properties of four different kinds of seawater as the quantum channel. The models of discrete-modulated continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD) in free-space seawater channel are briefly described, and the performance of the four-sta...
