In the era of information, securing communications against the ever-evolving threat landscape is paramount. Quantum communication, leveraging the principles of quantum mechanics, promises unprecedented security, potentially safeguarding the future of data transmission, including in the vast expanse of space. This workshop delves into quantum communication , especially for space missions, where the integrity and security of transmitted data are more and more important. This three-hour online training session introduces the fundamental concepts and applications of quantum communications within the space sector.
In this 3 hours on-line session, attendees will :
- understand the fundamentals of quantum communication and its relationship with space of space detection,
- explore the practical aspects of implementing quantum communication technology in space, including the required instrumentation
- review and discuss the different quantum communication protocols envisaged for future space missions and their potential impact
- discuss on the challenges and opportunities in advancing quantum communication technology for space exploration
Designed for professionals with a general scientific background rather than specialists in quantum mechanics, this course aims to demystify quantum communications and explore its potential advantages and challenges in space exploration and operations
Whether you are a scientist, engineer, or space enthusiast, this training offers a unique opportunity to expand your knowledge.
