Many cryptographic and error control coding algorithms rely on finite field GF(2m) arithmetic. Hardware implementation of these algorithms needs an efficient realization of finite field arithmetic operations. Finite field multiplication is complicated among the basic operations, and it is employed in field exponentiation and division operations. Various algorithms and architectures are proposed in the literature for hardware implementation of finite field multiplication to achieve a reduction in area and delay. In this paper, a low area and delay efficient semi-systolic multiplier over finite fields GF(2m) using the modified Montgomery modular multiplication (MMM) is presented. The least significant bit (LSB)-first multiplication and two-level parallel computing scheme are considered to improve the cell delay, latency, and area-time (AT) complexity. The proposed method has the features of regularity, modularity, and unidirectional data flow and offers a considerable improvement in AT complexity compared with related multipliers. The proposed multiplier can be used as a kernel circuit for exponentiation/division and multiplication.

This paper proposes a modular multiplier based on LFSR (Linear Feedback Shift Register) architecture with efficient area complexity over GF(2/sup m/). At first, we examine the modular exponentiation algorithm and propose it's architecture, which is basic module for public-key cryptosystems. Furthermore, this paper proposes on efficient modular multiplier as a basic architecture for the modular exponentiation. The multiplier uses AOP (All One Polynomial) as an irreducible polynomial, which has the properties of all coefficients with '1 ' and has a more efficient hardware complexity compared to existing architectures.

모듈라 멱승(modular exponentiation) 연산은 암호학에서 기본적이고 중요한 연산이다. 그러나, 이는 다정도 정수(multiple precision integer)들을 다루기 때문에 그 연산시 간이 무척 많이 걸리므로 이를 단축시킬 필요가 있다. 모듈라 멱승 연산은 모듈라 곱셈(modular multiplication)의 반복으로서, 전체 연산시간을 단축시키기 위해서는 모듈라 곱셈의 수행시간을 단축시키거나, 모듈라 곱셈의 반복횟수를 줄이는 것이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 모듈라 곱셈을 빠르게 수행하기 위한 알고리즘 두 개를 제안한다. 하나는 서로 다른 두 수의 모듈라 곱셈 알고리즘이고, 다른 하나는 모듈라 제곱을 빠르게 수행하는 알고리즘이다. 이 둘은 기존의 모듈라 곱셈 알고리즘들에 비해 각각 절반과, l/3가량의 단정도 곱셈(single-precision multiplication)만을 필요로 한다. 실제로 PC상에서 구현한 결과 각각 100%와 30%의 속도향상을 보인다.

Encapsulation for information security is often carried out in Galois field in the form of arithmetic operations. This paper proposes how to efficiently perform exponentiation of arithmetic information on Galois field. Especially, by improving an existing bit-parallel exponentiator to exclude elements with heavy gate counts and to take advantage of system constants, this paper proposes how to implement a VLSI architecture with high performance even for large m.

At a recent, enterprises based on online-service are established because of rapid growth of information network. These enterprises collect personal information and do customer management. If customers use a paid service, company send billing information to customer and customer pay it. Such circulation and management of information is big issue but most companies don't care of information security. Actually, personal information that was managed by largest internal open-market was exposed. For safe customer information management, this paper proposes the method that decrease load of RSA cryptography algorithm that is commonly used for preventing from illegal attack or hacking. The method for decreasing load was designed by Binary NAF Method and it can operates modular Exponentiation rapidly. We implemented modular Exponentiation algorithm using existing Binary Method and Windows Method and compared and evaluated it.

This paper presents a novel radix-4 modular multiplication algorithm based on the sign estimation technique (3). The sign estimation technique detects the sign of a number represented in the form of a carry-sum pair. It can be implemented with 5-bit carry look-ahead adder. The hardware speed of the cryptosystem is dependent on the performance modular multiplication of large numbers. Our algorithm requires only (n/2+3) clock cycle for n bit modulus in performing modular multiplication. Our algorithm out-performs existing algorithm in terms of required clock cycles by a half, It is efficient for modular exponentiation with large modulus used in RSA cryptosystem. Also, we use high-speed adder (7) instead of CPA (Carry Propagation Adder) for modular multiplication hardware performance in fecal stage of CSA (Carry Save Adder) output. We apply RL (Right-and-Left) binary method for modular exponentiation because the number of clock cycles required to complete the modular exponentiation takes n cycles. Thus, One 1024-bit RSA operation can be done after n(n/2+3) clock cycles.

This paper describes a design of RSA public-key cryptography processor supporting key length of 2,048 bits. A modular multiplier that is core arithmetic function in RSA cryptography was designed using word-based Montgomery multiplication algorithm, and a modular exponentiation was implemented by using Left-to-Right (LR) binary exponentiation algorithm. A computation of a modular multiplication takes 8,386 clock cycles, and RSA encryption and decryption requires 185,724 and 25,561,076 clock cycles, respectively. The RSA processor was verified by FPGA implementation using Virtex5 device. The RSA cryptographic processor synthesized with 100 MHz clock frequency using a 0.18 um CMOS cell library occupies 12,540 gate equivalents (GEs) and 12 kbits memory. It was estimated that the RSA processor can operate up to 165 MHz, and the estimated time for RSA encryption and decryption operations are 1.12 ms and 154.91 ms, respectively.

The XTR public key system has advantage of short key length and fast computing speed. So, the XTR is used usefully in complicated operation. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm of double exponentiation operation and a proxy signature protocol based on the XTR. The double exponentiation operation should be executed to apply XTR for the proxy signature protocol. But this algorithm is inappropriate, because two secret key has to be blown in existent operation algorithm. New algorithm enable double exponentiation operation with proxy signer's secret key and public information. And the XTR is used to generation and verification of proxy at proxy signature protocol. Therefore proxy signature based on the XTR has basic advantage of the XTR. These advantage can be used in internet as well as mobile.

In this paper we propos a new hardware architecture of modular exponentiation using a division chain method which has been proposed in (2). Modular exponentiation using the division chain is performed by receding an exponent E as a mixed form of multiplication and addition with divisors d=2 or $d=2^I +1$ and respective remainders r. This calculates the modular exponentiation in about $1.4log_2$E multiplications on average which is much less iterations than $2log_2$E of conventional Binary Method. We designed a linear systolic array multiplier with pipelining and used a horizontal projection on its data dependence graph. So, for k-bit key, two k-bit data frames can be inputted simultaneously and two modular multipliers, each consisting of k/2+3 PE(Processing Element)s, can operate in parallel to accomplish 100% throughput. We propose a new encoding scheme to represent divisors and remainders of the division chain to keep regularity of the data path. When it is synthesized to ASIC using Samsung 0.5 um CMOS standard cell library, the critical path delay is 4.24ns, and resulting performance is estimated to be abort 140 Kbps for a 1024-bit data frame at 200Mhz clock In decryption process, the speed can be enhanced to 560kbps by using CRT(Chinese Remainder Theorem). Futhermore, to satisfy real time requirements we can choose small public exponent E, such as 3,17 or $2^{16} +1$, in encryption and verification process. in which case the performance can reach 7.3Mbps.
