摘要：: A method and apparatus for quantum key distribution comprised of a privacy amplification method and device for the quantum key distribution process as well as a data transmission method and system based on quantum keys is provided, wherein the quantum key distribution method includes the following process: obtaining a bit stream of the same basis vector by sending or receiving coding quantum states of random bit streams and comparing those measurements obtained with the measurement basis vector; in accordance with a preset manner, extracting parameter information associated with privacy amplification and initial key information from the bit stream of the same basis vector after error correction; and using the initial key as an input to implement the privacy amplification algorithm based on the parameter information and thereby obtain shared quantum keys. Utilization of the method detailed herein can eliminate security risks in the negotiation of privacy amplification parameters in the alternative channel and effectively improve the security of quantum key distribution processes.
