  • Patent number: 11316676
    Abstract: In Round1, each terminal device transmits a key encryption key which conforms to post-quantum cryptography to a neighboring terminal device; in Round2, each terminal device generates a key capsule of a key-shared-between-two-parties using the received key encryption key and returns the key capsule to a terminal device which is a source of the key encryption key; in Round3, each terminal device generates information based on the key-shared-between-two-parties and transmits the information to a key distribution management device and the key distribution management device distributes information, which is obtained based on these pieces of information, to the terminal devices. Each terminal device calculates a shared key based on the distributed information.
