Detecting a Photon-Number Splitting Attack in Decoy-State Measurement-Device-Independent Quantum Key Distribution via Statistical Hypothesis Testing

Measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (MDI-QKD) is innately immune to all detection-side attacks. Due to the limitations of technology, most MDI-QKD protocols use weak coherent photon sources (WCPs), which may suffer from a photon-number splitting (PNS) attack from eavesdroppers. T...
