| Acronym: P-Quantum |
| Main Objective: - To perform a field trial experiment over installed fibers in the city of Aveiro, using single and entangled photon-pairs to implement quantum protocols for message authentication and fair contract signing; - To propose quantum protocols suitable for real quantum channels, for privacy problems that cannot be solved with quantum key distribution, namely the authentication of messages and fair contract signing. - To develop the interest and expertise in quantum telecommunications in Portugal, both at the theoretical and the experimental levels, in order to develop internationally-competitive research and train new human resources in this new and strategically important area for secure telecommunications. |
