Two-step quantum secure direct communication scheme with frequency coding

Quantum secure direct communication （QSDC） is an important branch of quantum cryptography. It can transmit secret information directly without establishing a key first, unlike quantum key distribution which requires this precursory event. Here we propose a QSDC scheme by applying the frequency coding technique to the two-step QSDC protocol, which enables the two-step QSDC protocol to work in a noisy environment. We have numerically simulated the performance of the protocol in a noisy channel, and the results show that the scheme is indeed robust against channel noise and loss. We also give an estimate of the channel noise upper bound.

STUDY ON FREQUENCY CODING ANTI-INTERFERENCE SYSTEM FOR DATA TRANSMISSION IN SHALLOW WATER ACOUSTIC CHANNELS

Achieving reliable underwater communication in shallow water acoustic channels is a difficult task because of the random time varying nature of multipath propagation, severe amplitude fluctuation, and spatial variability of the channel conditions. This paper describes a new signal processing technique frequency coding and decoding by means of real time measurement of signal width, jamming and suppressing multipath interference and using redundant coder. The application of the technique to the model ZTY 1 status monitor for underwater system of seabed is introduced in this paper. The main principle, the technique specifications and the key techniques of the system are discussed here. Theoretical estimations and experimental results proved that the performance of the system is excellent. The method can be used for some other related low data rate data transmission detecting in shallow water acoustic channel.

ANALYSIS AND PROCESSING OF LMF-COSTAS STEPPED FREQUENCY RADAR SIGNAL

Linear Modulated Frequency (LMF) Costas Stepped Frequency Radar (SFR) signal is introduced. Its ambiguity function is derived and analyzed in detail and its feasibility is validated in theory. The scheme of the proposed signal processing is also presented. The results of theoretic analysis and simulation show that, by using the proposed signal and increasing the bandwidth of the total stepped frequency, the ambiguity sidelobe is well suppressed and the range-velocity coupling in the stepped frequency radar is also greatly weakened.

A Novel High Spectral Efficiency Waveform Coding-OVFDM

Based on the Overlapped Multiplexing Principle[12],a frequency domain OVFDM(Overlapped Frequency Domain Multiplexing) Coding is proposed.By the data weighted shift overlapped version of any band-limited Multiplexing Transfer Function H(f) the coding gain and spectral efficiency are both achieved.The heavier the overlap of the data weighted Multiplexing Transfer Function H(f),the higher the coding gain and spectral efficiency as well as the closer the output to the optimum complex Gaussian distribution.The bit error probability performance is estimated.The time domain OVTDM(Overlapped Time Domain Multiplexing) Coding,the dual of OVFDM in time domain is incidentally proposed as well.Both theoretical analysis and testified simulations show that OVFDM(OVTDM) is suitable for high spectral efficiency application and its spectral efficiency is only roughly linear to SNR rather than the well-known logarithm to SNR.

Differential Space Frequency Mapping Schemes and Norm Criterion

This paper proposed four types of differential modulation to map the unitary code into the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) signal. The time-varying channel model is established and the norm of detection metric is deduced. The norm is the inherent interference of the time-varying channel, so it can be used as criterion to evaluate the performance of the mapping schemes. The simulation results agree with the analytic conclusion.

Experimental quantum secure direct communication with single photons

Quantum secure direct communication is an important mode of quantum communication in which secret messages are securely communicated directly over a quantum channel.Quantum secure direct communication is also a basic cryptographic primitive for constructing other quantum communication tasks,such as quantum authentication and quantum dialog.Here,we report the first experimental demonstration of quantum secure direct communication based on the DL04 protocol and equipped with single-photon frequency coding that explicitly demonstrated block transmission.In our experiment,we provided 16 different frequency channels,equivalent to a nibble of four-bit binary numbers for direct information transmission.The experiment firmly demonstrated the feasibility of quantum secure direct communication in the presence of noise and loss.

Direct GPS P-Code Acquisition Method Based on FFT

Recently, direct acquisition of GPS P-code has received considerable attention to enhance the anti-jamming and anti-spoofing capabilities of GPS receivers. This paper describes a P-code acquisition method that uses block searches with large-scale FFT to search code phases and carrier frequency offsets in parallel. To limit memory use, especially when implemented in hardware, only the largest correlation result with its position information was preserved after searching a block of resolution cells in both the time and frequency domains. A second search was used to solve the code phase slip problem induced by the code frequency offset, Simulation results demonstrate that the probability of detection is above 0.99 for carrier-to-noise density ratios in excess of 40 dB. Hz when the predetection integration time is 0.8 ms and 6 non- coherent integrations are used in the analysis.
