| contents | In this work, a comparison study between unidimensional (UD) coherent-state and UD squeeze-state protocols is performed in the continuous variable quantum key distribution domain. First, the UD squeeze-state protocol is proposed and the equivalence between the prepare-and-measure and entanglement-based schemes of UD squeeze-state protocol is proved. Then, the security of the UD squeeze-state protocol under collective attack in realistic conditions is analyzed. Lastly, the performances of the two UD protocols are analyzed. Based on the uniform expressions established in our study, the squeeze-state and coherent-state protocols can be analyzed simultaneously. Our results show that the UD squeeze-state protocols are quite different from the two-dimensional protocols in that the UD squeeze-state protocols have a poorer performance compared with UD coherent-state protocols, which is opposite in the case of two-dimensional protocols. |
