Quantum Communication III - Key generation

Since repeating in quantum networks is not ready for operation anytime soon, a more modest approach is needed for network construction. The remedy is smaller-scale and more tightly meshed networks in the 100 km range. This places higher demands on security and performance, especially for key generation. In the third part (videos 21-27) the tutorial shows what progress has been made since the original BB84 protocol and what role time bin endcoding plays. The state spaces known in computer science will also be discussed.
