Lux4QCI: Luxembourg Experimental Network for Quantum Communication Infrastructure

An experimental quantum communication network integrating terrestrial optical fibre and satellite links for quantum key distribution in Luxembourg.

I worked on Lux4QCI as a Postdoctoral Researcher at SnT, University of Luxembourg, from April 2025 to June 2026.

Lux4QCI develops an experimental quantum communication infrastructure that integrates terrestrial optical-fibre networks with satellite optical links. The project addresses QKD network architecture, security analysis, hardware and software integration, key management, and network orchestration. Its use cases include governmental communications and sensitive data transfer between data centres, with a view to connecting Luxembourg to the wider European quantum communication infrastructure.
