Abstract
According to an embodiment, a quantum communication device is adapted to correct first sift key data acquired by performing sift processing with respect to a quantum bit string received from a transmission device via a quantum communication path. The quantum communication device includes a determination unit and a correction unit. The determination unit determines setting information of error correction on the first sift key data from an estimated error rate of the first sift key data and a margin of the estimated error rate. The correction unit generates corrected key data by performing the error correction with the setting information.
