Detailed Description

The QKD key is an elementary class of QKDNetSim.

Introspection did not find any typical Config paths.

It is used to describe the key that is established in the QKD process. In QKD process, keys are stored as blocks (blocks of 1024, 2048, 4096 bits or other). Later, some part of the block is taken and used for encryption, while other remains in the buffer. Operations regarding QKD Key management (merge, split and other) are under construction.


No Attributes are defined for this type.
No TraceSources are defined for this type.
Size of this type is 80 bytes (on a 64-bit architecture).
