Inhalt:
We investigate the coexistence of classical and CV-QKD channels. We accurately calculate the Raman noise affecting CV-QKD and optimize its wavelength placement. The results show that applying the right heuristic significantly reduces the blocking probability of WDM channels with minimal impact on the CV-QKD SKR.
