Abstract :
The B92 protocol is a two quantum states protocol in quantum cryptography. It is one of the basic models of quantum key distribution (QKD) in depolarizing channel. We simulate the rate of secure key distribution in depolarizing channel on a classical computer with the method of event-by-event simulation.After the event-by-event simulation of quantum transmission, data reconciliation and privacy amplification are done to obtain the secure key. We give the simulation results of private classical capacity with respect to the depolarizing coefficient.
