However, in the context of a standalone QRNG device, this issue is very important. In this paper, we consider the problem of digitizing laser pulses with random intensity and analyze various approaches used to estimate the contribution of classical noise. A simple method for determining the quantum reduction factor suitable for digitization with an analog-to-digital converter is proposed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-06-20T08:00:35.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "interference", "quantum random number generators", "quantum reduction factor", "standalone qrng device", "random signal digitization" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "IEEE" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
