Dataset description

Amplitude measurements used for the plots of graphs in Figures 4, 5, 7, 8, and C1 of the associated paper "Quantum key distribution with displaced thermal states", generated through radio broadcasts. This set aims to allow recreation of those graphs, and confirmation of the claims made concerning those specific examples. Contained are the results of two uses of a thermal state QKD protocol, one performed with wired broadcasts, and one performed wirelessly. Both of these attempts produce a set of amplitudes measurements for Alice, Bob, and Eve. These results demonstrate that thermal broadcasts provide correlated amplitude measurements when split by a power splitter, which can then be used to produce bit strings for key distribution.
