ETSI Industry Specification Group (ISG) on Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) 005.4.5.2: 005.4.5.2 Detection unit assumptions: mode response, equal efficiencies, isolation

For the detection unit: it must respond only to the degree of freedom that carries the quantum signal and not behave differently for timing, spatial or other modes; detection probability is usually assumed independent of measurement settings and equal for all signals within a setting, so unequal single-photon detector efficiencies must be counteracted by the set-up or accounted for in the proof; and internal settings and components (detectors, modulators) must not be readable or modifiable from outside, with monitored optical isolators required as a minimum.
