Resumo

We investigated the possibility of practical implementation of a quantum communication link for encryption key distribution between a Micius satellite and a mobile ground optical station. Thanks to theoretical estimation numerical values of the main parameters of such a communication link are obtained: total loss, key generation rate and secret key length, as well as quantum bit error rate.
