This paper presents new hardware implementation of the ECC(Elliptic Curve Cryptography) algorithm that is improved in speed and stability. We proposed new datapath that changed square's position so that we can reduce required number of cycles for addition operation between two points by more than 30%. We used Massey-Omura parallel multiplier adopted Normal basis for fast scalar multiplications. Also the use of the window non-adjacent form (WNAF) method can reduce addition operation of each other different points. We implemented ECC system with GF($2^{196}$), and this system was designed and verified by VHDL.

The normal basis has the advantage that the result of squaring an element is simply the right cyclic shift of its coordinates in hardware implementation over finite fields. In particular, the optimal normal basis is the most efficient to hardware implementation over finite fields. In this paper, we propose an efficient parallel architecture which transforms the Gaussian normal basis multiplication in GF($2^m$) into the type-I optimal normal basis multiplication in GF($2^{mk}$), which is based on the palindromic representation of polynomials.

In H/W implementation for the finite field the use of normal basis has several advantages, especially, the optimal normal basis is the most efficient to H/W implementation in $GF(2^m)$. In this paper, we propose a new, simpler, parallel multiplier over $GF(2^m)$ having a Gaussian normal basis of type k, which performs multiplication over $GF(2^m)$ in the extension field $GF(2^{mk})$ containing a type-I optimal normal basis. For k=2,4,6 the time and area complexity of the proposed multiplier is the same as tha of the best known Reyhani-Masoleh and Hasan multiplier.
