Integrating quantum key distribution (QKD) into passive optical networks (PONs) poses challenges due to high losses from passive splitters and spontaneous Raman scattering noise from coexisting classical channels. This paper compares the performance of upstream discrete-variable and continuous-variable QKD systems in single-fibre bidirectional PONs.
