Fig. 3. Side channel effects and the performance of the QKD system under IDC=0. (a) Side channel effects of temporal disparity and intensity fluctuation. Second pulses out of two consecutive pulses in a 1 s time block are measured for different time intervals from 2.5 to 40 ns. Details of the measurement methods are described in [11]. (b) QBER as a function of the signal window with temporal filtering. The signal window was resized from 2.5 to 0.5 ns, with a resolution of 0.25 ns. (c) Sifted key rate and secure key rate as functions of the signal window with temporal filtering.
