Continuous-variable quantum key distribution with qudits — •Ulrich Seyfarth and Gernot Alber — Institut für Angewandte Physik, Technische Universität Darmstadt, D-64289 Darmstadt

A generalisation of the continuous-variable protocol investigated by Grosshans and Grangier [1] is proposed. Secret key rates are evaluated for cases in which an eavesdropper can extract information by beam-splitting attacks. These rates are calculated for direct and reverse reconciliation over the channel transmittivity. Optimisations of this protocol are discussed.
