Validation Results

Comprehensive validation summary for QbitShield's Prime Harmonics framework.

Results reflect controlled experiments using both simulated and physical quantum hardware under matched noise conditions.

Randomness Validation

Key sequences generated through Prime Harmonics were evaluated using the NIST SP 800-22 statistical test suite.

All sampled sequences demonstrated statistical behavior consistent with high-entropy randomness within acceptable confidence intervals.

Ongoing validation continues as larger data sets and hardware runs are added.

Test Conditions

Hardware and Simulators:

Validated on Cirq simulation environment; physical tests performed on IBM Brisbane and IonQ Aria-1 through Amazon Braket.

Additional backends, including Rigetti, are in active evaluation.

Environment:

Internal research cluster and controlled local simulator nodes.

Key Length:

256-bit (configurable).

Sample Size:

Multiple independent key-generation runs per configuration; extended runs planned for hardware consistency analysis.

Performance Metrics

Latency

In internal tests, median key-generation latency remained below one millisecond on simulated environments.

Hardware latency data collection is in progress; full results will be published upon completion.

Entropy Quality

Entropy was evaluated using the NIST SP 800-22 test suite and complementary statistical checks.

Keys exhibit near-uniform bit distributions with no significant autocorrelation.

Where quantum hardware was employed, entropy originates from genuine measurement outcomes; high-fidelity simulation is used as fallback when hardware access is limited.

Quantum Bit Error Rate (QBER)

Observed QBER values were consistently lower than those of baseline BB84 and QFT-based protocols when tested under identical noise parameters on IBM Brisbane and IonQ Aria-1.

Detailed comparative plots and numerical data are included in the internal validation appendix.

Circuit Fidelity

Unitary fidelity was assessed through Cirq and Qiskit state-vector comparisons.

All compiled circuits met the expected tolerance levels for gate accuracy and noise calibration.

Open QASM outputs are available for independent verification.

Test Methodology

  • Cirq validation suite executed for Prime-Basis QKD (including sifting, error-correction, and privacy-amplification stages) and Prime QFT (unitary/equivalence checks).
  • Adaptive basis switching and QBER-based privacy amplification implemented in software simulation.
  • Symbolic compiler employed for prime-indexed qubit mapping, coprime gate scheduling, and noise-aware layout optimization.
  • Preliminary prime-based error-correction scheme (distance 3) tested for resilience under simulated decoherence.
  • The Prime Harmonics framework is approximately 70 percent implemented in simulation, with expanded hardware execution planned.
  • Intellectual-property filings for Prime Harmonics are submitted and under review.

Summary

Current validation confirms that the Prime Harmonics framework produces statistically random key material, demonstrates lower quantum-bit-error rates compared with baseline protocols, and maintains high circuit fidelity under realistic noise.

Testing is ongoing across IBM Brisbane, IonQ Aria-1 via Amazon Braket, and simulated environments.

Updated results, datasets, and scripts will be released as each stage completes.
