摘要
We propose a new scheme to enhance the performance of the Gussian-modulated coherent-state continuous-variable measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution(CV-MDI-QKD)system via quantum scissors(QS)operation at Bob's side.As an non-deterministic amplifying setup,we firstly introduce the QS-enhanced CV-MDI-QKD protocol and then investigate the success probability of the QS operation in accordance with the equivalent one-way scheme.Afterwards,we investigate the effect of the QS operation on the proposed scheme and analyze the performance of the QS-enhanced CV-MDI-QKD system under the extreme asymmetric circumstance.Simulation results show that the QS operation can indeed improve the performance of the CV-MDI-QKD system considerably.QS-enhanced CV-MDI-QKD protocol outperforms the original CV-MDI-QKD protocol in both the maximum transmission distance and the secret key rate.Moreover,the better the performance of QS operation,the more significant the improvement of performance of the system.
