The Quantum Communications group is organizing the workshop "Quantum Communications in Free Space" as part of the PTQCI – Portuguese Quantum Communication Infrastructure project.
This workshop will address quantum communications in free space, including satellite-to-earth quantum communications, which are pivotal for developing a future global quantum network. It will cover new protocols and experimental work and will feature contributions from national and international experts, fostering knowledge exchange and a unified perspective on the subject. This event, the second edition organized under the PTQCI project, will showcase the latest advancements and research in quantum communications.
The workshop will be held on September 9-10 at Instituto de Telecomunicações (Amphitheatre Abreu Faro), located within Instituto Superior Técnico (IST) in Lisbon.
Researchers and experts in the field are invited to present their latest work.
PTQCI is a consortium dedicated to developing and deploying quantum communications in Portugal, which is aligned with the EuroQCI – European Quantum Communications Network initiative. This initiative aims to establish quantum secure communications across Europe in the coming years. The consortium includes universities and research centers such as Instituto de Telecomunicações, ISEL, and IST, national bodies like GNS, IPQ, and FCCN, industrial entities such as Deimos, Adyta, Omnidea, and Warpcom, and telecommunications companies including IP Telecom and Altice Labs.
Participation in the workshop requires registration and a fee.
