Abstract
Experimental imperfections (dark counts and inefficiencies of detectors, multiphoton emissions of sources, losses in quantum channels ...) must be decreased for practical quantum key distribution. And the system must have required properties such as robustness, stability, and operability at an ambient temperature.
