Short Blocklength Error Correction Codes for Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution
We introduce a two-step error correction scheme for reconciliation in continuous-variable quantum key distribution systems. Using this scheme, it is possible to use error correction codes with small blocklengths (1000 bits), increasing secret key rates at a distance of 140km by up to 7.3 times.
