QEYnet places Trusted Nodes on satellites in Earth Orbit, enabling global QKD connectivity. A single satellite can orbit the Earth 15 times a day, providing widespread coverage.
02
Quantum Key Generation
The system exchanges photons with ground sites to create quantum keys. It generates Key A with Site A and Key B with Site B. Key B is used to encrypt Key A, and the result is sent to Earth, allowing Site B to calculate Key A.
03
Newspace Approach
QEYnet utilizes a 'Newspace' approach to satellite development, minimizing cost and procurement time for the spacecraft components of the system.
04
Space-Based Qkd Payload
The system incorporates a space-based QKD payload developed at the University of Waterloo's Institute for Quantum Computing, enabling quantum key distribution from orbit.
05
Global Scalability
The QKD constellation can grow naturally with demand, enabling unconditionally secure key exchange on a global scale in the post-quantum era.
