Abstract :
We performed a simulation of the quantum cryptographic B92 protocol, using coherent continuum states, in the plug and play system. We observed fluctuations of the mean photon number in the pulses that arrive at the receiver, introduced by the statistical property of the simulation. This fluctuation simulates the presence of a classical noise source in the system that occurs in practical systems.
