    Tate Pairings on Elliptic curve Cryptography are important because they can be used to build efficient Identity-Based Cryptosystems, as well as their implementation essentially determines the efficiency of cryptosystems.

    We describe fast new algorithms to implement recent cryptosystems based on the Tate pairing. In particular, our techniques improve pairing evaluation speed by a factor of about 55 compared to previously known methods in characteristic 3, and attain performance comparable to that of RSA in larger characteristics.We also propose faster algorithms for scalar multiplication in characteristic 3 and square root extraction over Fpm, the latter technique being also useful in contexts other than that of pairing-based cryptography

    An Efficient hardware implementation of the tate pairing in characteristic three

    DL systems with bilinear structure recently became an important base for cryptographic protocols such as identity-based encryption (IBE). Since the main computational task is the evaluation of the bilinear pairings over elliptic curves, known to be prohibitively expensive, efficient implementations are required to render them applicable in real life scenarios. We present an efficient accelerator for computing the Tate Pairing in characteristic 3, using the Modified Duursma-Lee algorithm. Our accelerator shows that it is possible to improve the area-time product by 12 times on FPGA, compared to estimated values from one of the best known hardware architecture [6] implemented on the same type of FPGA. Also the computation time is improved upto 16 times compared to software applications reported in [17]. In addition, we present the result of an ASIC implementation of the algorithm, which is the first hitherto

    Low-energy finite field arithmetic primitives for implementing security in wireless sensor networks

    In this paper we propose the use of identity based encryption (IBE) for ensuring a secure wireless sensor network. In this context we have implemented the arithmetic operations required for the most computationally expensive part of IBE, which is the Tate pairing, in 90 nm CMOS and obtained area, timing and energy figures for the designs. Initial results indicate that a hardware implementation of IBE would meet the strict energy constraint of a wireless sensor network nod

    A versatile Montgomery multiplier architecture with characteristic three support

    We present a novel unified core design which is extended to realize Montgomery multiplication in the fields GF(2n), GF(3m), and GF(p). Our unified design supports RSA and elliptic curve schemes, as well as the identity-based encryption which requires a pairing computation on an elliptic curve. The architecture is pipelined and is highly scalable. The unified core utilizes the redundant signed digit representation to reduce the critical path delay. While the carry-save representation used in classical unified architectures is only good for addition and multiplication operations, the redundant signed digit representation also facilitates efficient computation of comparison and subtraction operations besides addition and multiplication. Thus, there is no need for a transformation between the redundant and the non-redundant representations of field elements, which would be required in the classical unified architectures to realize the subtraction and comparison operations. We also quantify the benefits of the unified architectures in terms of area and critical path delay. We provide detailed implementation results. The metric shows that the new unified architecture provides an improvement over a hypothetical non-unified architecture of at least 24.88%, while the improvement over a classical unified architecture is at least 32.07%

    Faster computation of the Tate pairing

    This paper proposes new explicit formulas for the doubling and addition step in Miller's algorithm to compute the Tate pairing. For Edwards curves the formulas come from a new way of seeing the arithmetic. We state the first geometric interpretation of the group law on Edwards curves by presenting the functions which arise in the addition and doubling. Computing the coefficients of the functions and the sum or double of the points is faster than with all previously proposed formulas for pairings on Edwards curves. They are even competitive with all published formulas for pairing computation on Weierstrass curves. We also speed up pairing computation on Weierstrass curves in Jacobian coordinates. Finally, we present several examples of pairing-friendly Edwards curves.Comment: 15 pages, 2 figures. Final version accepted for publication in Journal of Number Theor

    Refinements of Miller's Algorithm over Weierstrass Curves Revisited

    In 1986 Victor Miller described an algorithm for computing the Weil pairing in his unpublished manuscript. This algorithm has then become the core of all pairing-based cryptosystems. Many improvements of the algorithm have been presented. Most of them involve a choice of elliptic curves of a \emph{special} forms to exploit a possible twist during Tate pairing computation. Other improvements involve a reduction of the number of iterations in the Miller's algorithm. For the generic case, Blake, Murty and Xu proposed three refinements to Miller's algorithm over Weierstrass curves. Though their refinements which only reduce the total number of vertical lines in Miller's algorithm, did not give an efficient computation as other optimizations, but they can be applied for computing \emph{both} of Weil and Tate pairings on \emph{all} pairing-friendly elliptic curves. In this paper we extend the Blake-Murty-Xu's method and show how to perform an elimination of all vertical lines in Miller's algorithm during Weil/Tate pairings computation on \emph{general} elliptic curves. Experimental results show that our algorithm is faster about 25% in comparison with the original Miller's algorithm.Comment: 17 page
