Abstract
A novel quantum key distribution protocol based on entanglement and dense coding is proposed, which does not need to store the qubits. Every four particles is divided into a group, of which or are in entanglement. Some of the groups are used to transfer the message, and the others are used to check the eavesdropping. In the message mode, the authorized party needn’t to know the location information of the group, he only needs to make the unitary operation to the first and the forth of the group. Also, the trade-off between information and disturbance is calculated under the intercept-measure-resend attack and entanglement-measure attack, which tells that the protocol is asymptotically secure. Moreover, the quantum circuit simulation of the protocol is shown.
