Abstract

We propose a new system of quantum key distribution via optical wireless communication links, where the required information, especially telephone conversation, can be secured by using a quantum code/decode (CODEC) technique incorporated in the networks. The entangled photons can be encoded into the classical information and then the decoded signal can also be retrieved. The proposed system consists of quantum key generation and uplink and downlink parts that can be implemented in the mobile telephone handset and networks. Such a system and technique show the feasibility of use for a perfectly security telephone networks.
