LDPC codes for information reconciliation in QKD
Implementation of LDPC Error Correction over experimental QKD Dataset
In this project, we designed the LDPC encoder using a parity check matrix and the LDPC decoder using the Belief Propagation (BP) algorithm. Using this we successfully performed error correction on an experimental QKD dataset.
Some highlights of the projects are:
- Designed an algorithm to find the parity check matrix needed to generate syndrome.
- Designed a complete interface to handle error correction (encoding and decoding) in a binary symmetric channel with different error rates.
The code for this project has not yet been released.
