A quantum key distribution (QKD) protocol based on Bell states is proposed. By transmitting the photons from Bell states in random order the sender constructs nonorthogonal states, which can prevent an eavesdropper from extracting key information. At the destination,the receiver performs Bell measurements and then obtains secure key. The property of entanglement swapping can improve the effciency of QKD. To show the security of this scheme, we present an explicit relation between the information that an eavesdropper can elicit and the corresponding error rate he/she would introduce. Furthermore, all the photons are still in Bell states finally and can be reused for new applications.
Keywords:Quantum Key Distribution; Cryptography; Information Security
