Abstract
A method for performing a key exchange between a first device, a second device, and an intermediary device, wherein the intermediary device: transmits to the first device a first secret symbol string over a first quantum channel and a first basis set over a first channel, transmits to the second device a second secret symbol string over a second quantum channel and a second basis set over a second channel, and generates a third symbol string by combining the first and second secret symbol strings and transmits data representative of the third symbol string to the second device, whereby the first and second devices perform a quantum key exchange and sifting based on the first and second secret symbol strings and first and second basis sets, and a fourth set of symbols is generated by the second device by combining the second secret symbols with the third symbol string.
