Project Details
Description
This project aims to address the fundamental challenges of developing quantum communication technology in
space by performing space qualification of quantum technologies and optimising quantum key distribution
protocols for space applications. This research expects to provide Australia with future-proof secure information
networks. The expected benefits include generating new knowledge in the area of long-distance quantum key
distribution based on continuous variables, laying the foundation for next-generation space communication
technologies, enhancing interdisciplinary collaboration across research institutions, defence, and industry
partners; and placing Australia in a leading position in the global race of space quantum technologies.
