The Ring of Fiber: A Practical Approach to Perfectly Secure Communication Networks Over Ultra-Lossy Channels
Imagine a procedure that could guarantee perfectly secret communication between users that are hundreds of kilometres apart. The only catch is that these users must be able to prepare optical signals that share an identical reference, or phase, throughout the entirety of their transmission over optical fiber channels.
