الوصف: We propose a new implementation of the BBM92 protocol for satellite continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD) systems using the dual-threshold/direct detection (DT/DD) scheme. The proposed system is less complex and therefore possibly cheaper than current discrete-variable (DV) and CV-QKD ones using coherent detection receivers. We model and analyze the performance of the proposed system in the context that a satellite distributes secret keys to two legitimate users. The analytical results are derived by considering channel loss, atmospheric turbulence-induced fading, and receiver noises. The Gaussian beam model is considered to evaluate the impact of geometric spread on the signal received by legitimate users and the possibility of being eavesdropped. Based on the design criteria for the system and analytical results, we investigate the feasibility of a case study for the Japan QKD network using the existing low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellation.
