It is important that we can calculate the order of non-supersingular elliptic curves with large prime factors over the finite field GF(q) to guarantee the security of public key cryptosystems based on discrete logarithm problem(DLP). Schoof algorithm, however, which is used to calculate the order of the non-supersingular elliptic curves currently is so complicated that many papers are appeared recently to update the algorithm. To avoid Schoof algorithm, in this paper, we propose an algorithm to calculate orders of elliptic curves over finite composite fields of the forms $GF(2^m)=GF(2^{rs})=GF((2^r)^s)$ using Weil's theorem. Implementing the program based on the proposed algorithm, we find a efficient non-supersingular elliptic curve over the finite composite field $GF(2^5)^{31})$ of the order larger than $10^{40}$ with prime factor larger than $10^{40}$ using the elliptic curve $E(GF(2^5))$ of the order 36.

As Koblitz curve, the Frobenius endomorphism is know to be useful in efficient implementation of multiplication on non-supersingular elliptic cures defined on small finite fields of characteristic two. In this paper a method using the extended Frobenius endomorphism to speed up scalar multiplication is introduced. It will be shown that the proposed method is more efficient than Muller's block method in ［5］ because the number of point addition for precomputation is small but on the other hand the expansion length is almost same.
