Decoy state method quantum key distribution (QKD) is one of the promising practical solutions to BB84 QKD with coherent light pulses. In the real world, however, statistical fluctuations with the finite code length cannot be negligible, and the securities of theoretical and experimental researches of the decoy method state QKD so far are based on the asymptotic GLLP's formula which guarantees only that the limit of eavesdropper's information becomes zero as the code length approaches infinity. In this paper, we propose a substantially improved decoy state QKD in the framework of the finite code length and derive the upper bound of eavesdropper's information in the finite code length decoy state QKD with arbitrary number of decoy states of different intensities incorporating the finite statistics. We also show the performance of our decoy QKD and optimal values of parameters by numerical simulation.
