文摘It is established that a single quantum cryptography protocol usually cooperates with other cryptographicsystems,such as an authentication system,in the real world.However,few protocols have been proposed on how tocombine two or more quantum protocols.To fill this gap,we propose a composed quantum protocol,containing bothquantum identity authentication and quantum key distribution,using squeezed states.Hence,not only the identity canbe verified,but also a new private key can be generated by our new protocol.We also analyze the security under anoptimal attack,and the efficiency,which is defined by the threshold of the tolerant error rate,using Gaussian errorfunction.
