Abstract

In this paper, we propose a quantum private comparison \((\mathrm{QPC})\) protocol based on Bell states. The presented protocol can determine not only whether two secrets are equal, but also the size relationship between them. The proposed protocol can secretly compare information of the two participants with the help of a third party \((\mathrm{TP})\). The proposed protocol has adopted quantum transmission strategy and the decoy state photons to prevent various types of Eve attacks and participant attacks. It is shown that the protocol is secure in theory.
