In this paper, we implemented an Elliptic Curve Cryptography(ECC) processor for Digital Transmission Contents Protection (DTCP), which is a standard for protecting various digital contents in the network. Unlikely to other applications, DTCP uses ECC algorithm which is defined over GF(p), where p is a 160-bit prime integer. The core arithmetic operation of ECC is a scalar multiplication, and it involves large amount of very long integer modular multiplications and additions. In this paper, the modular multiplier was designed using the well-known Montgomery algorithm which was implemented with CSA(Carry-save Adder) and 4-level CLA(Carry-lookahead Adder). Our new ECC processor has been synthesized using Samsung 0.18 m CMOS standard cell library, and the maximum operation frequency was estimated 98 MHz, with the size about 65,000 gates. The resulting performance was 29.6 kbps, that is, it took 5.4 msec to process a 160-bit data frame. We assure that this performance is enough to be used for digital signature, encryption and decryption, and key exchanges in real time environments.

This paper presented a new structure of RSA cryptosystem using modified Montgomery algorithm and CSA(Carry Save Adder) tree. Montgomery algorithm was modified to a radix-4 modified Booth algorithm. By appling radix-4 modified Booth algorithm and CSA tree to modular multiplication, a clock cycle for modular multiplication has been reduced to (n＋3)/2 and carry propagation has been removed from the cell structure of modular multiplier. That is, the connection efficiency of full adders is enhanced.

In this paper, an implementation method of RSA exponentiator based on Radix-$2^k$ modular multiplication algorithm is presented and verified. We use Booth receding algorithm to implement Radix-$2^k$ modular multiplication and implement radix-16 modular multiplier using 2K-byte memory and CSA(carry-save adder) array - with two full adder and three half adder delays. For high speed final addition we use a reduced carry generation and propagation scheme called pseudo carry look-ahead adder. Furthermore, the optimum value of the radix is presented through the trade-off between the operating frequency and the throughput for given Silicon technology. We have verified 1,024-bit RSA processor using Altera FPGA EP2K1500E device and Samsung 0.3$\mu\textrm{m}$ technology. In case of the radix-16 modular multiplication algorithm, (n+4+1)/4 clock cycles are needed and the 1,024-bit modular exponentiation is performed in 5.38ms at 50MHz.

In this paper, we propose a multiplexer based scheme that performs modular AB² multiplication using redundant basis over finite field. Then we propose an efficient multiplexer based semi-systolic AB² multiplier using proposed scheme. We derive a method that allows the multiplexers to perform the operations in the cell of the modular AB² multiplier. The cell of the multiplier is implemented using multiplexers to reduce cell latency. As compared to the existing related structures, the proposed AB² multiplier saves about 80.9%, 61.8%, 61.8%, and 9.5% AT complexity of the multipliers of Liu et al., Lee et al., Ting et al., and Kim-Kim, respectively. Therefore, the proposed multiplier is well suited for VLSI implementation and can be easily applied to various applications.

The efficiency of the multiplier largely depends on the representation of finite filed elements such as normal basis, polynomial basis, dual basis, and redundant representation, and so on. In particular, the redundant representation is attractive since it can simply implement squaring and modular reduction. In this paper, we propose an efficient bit-parallel multiplier for GF(2m) defined by an irreducible all-one polynomial using a redundant representation. We modify the well-known multiplication method which was proposed by Karatsuba to improve the efficiency of the proposed bit-parallel multiplier. As a result, the proposed multiplier has a lower space complexity compared to the previously known multipliers using all-one polynomials. On the other hand, its time complexity is similar to the previously proposed ones.

This paper presents a scalable dual-field Montgomery multiplier based on a new multi-precision carry save adder(MP-CSA), which operates in both types of finite fields GF(p) and GF($2^m$). The new MP-CSA consists of two carry save adders(CSA). Each CSA is composed of n = [w/b] carry propagation adders(CPA) for a modular multiplication with w-bit words, where b is the number of dual field adders(DFA) in a CPA. The proposed Montgomery multiplier has roughly the same timing complexity compared with the previous result, however, it has the advantage of reduced chip area requirements. In addition, the proposed circuit produces the exact modular multiplication result at the end of operation unlike the previous architecture. Furthermore, the proposed Montgomery multiplier has a high scalability in terms of w and m. Therefore, it can be used to multiplier over GF(p) and GF($2^m$) for cryptographic applications.

In this paper, we implement an Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem(ECC) processor for DTCP. Because DTCP(Digital Transmission Content Protection) uses GF(p), where p is a 160-bit prime integer, we design a scalar multiplier based on GF(p). The scalar multiplier consists of a modular multiplier and an adder. The multiplier uses montgomery algorithm which is implemented with CSA(Carry-save Adder) and CLA(Carry-lookahead Adder). Our new scalar multiplier has been synthesized using Samsung 0.18 um CMOS technology and the maximum operation frequency is estimated 98 MHz, with the size about 65,000 gates. The resulting performance is 29.6 kbps, that is, it takes 5.4 msec to process a 160-bit data frame. We assure that this performance is enough to be used for digital signature, encryption/decryption, and key exchanges in real time environments.

This paper includes a general version of Bessel multipliers in Hilbert C∗-modules. In fact, by combining analysis, an operator on the standard Hilbert C∗-module and synthesis, we reach so-called generalized Bessel multipliers. Because of their importance for applications, we are interested to determine cases when generalized multipliers are invertible. We investigate some necessary or sufficient conditions for the invertibility of such operators and also we look at which perturbation of parameters preserve the invertibility of them. Subsequently, our attention is on how to express the inverse of an invertible generalized frame multiplier as a multiplier. In fact, we show that for all frames, the inverse of any invertible frame multiplier with an invertible symbol can always be represented as a multiplier with an invertible symbol and appropriate dual frames of the given ones.

Two standard Bessel sequences in a Hilbert $C^*$-module are approximately duals if the distance (with respect to the norm) between the identity operator on the Hilbert $C^*$-module and the operator constructed by the composition of the synthesis and analysis operators of these Bessel sequences is strictly less than one. In this paper, we introduce (a, m)-approximate duality using the distance between the identity operator and the operator defined by multiplying the Bessel multiplier with symbol m by an element a in the center of the $C^*$-algebra. We show that approximate duals are special cases of (a, m)-approximate duals and we generalize some of the important results obtained for approximate duals to (a, m)-approximate duals. Especially we study perturbations of (a, m)-approximate duals and (a, m)-approximate duals of modular Riesz bases.

In public key cryptography such as RSA, modular exponentiation is the most time-consuming operation. RSA's modular exponentiation can be computed by repeated modular multiplication. To attain high efficiency for RSA, fast modular multiplication algorithms have been proposed to speed up decryption/encryption. Montgomery multiplication is limited by the carry propagation delay from the addition of long operands. In this paper, we propose a hardware structure that reduces the area of the Montgomery multiplication implementation for lightweight applications of RSA. Experimental results showed that the new design can achieve higher performance and reduce hardware area. A frequency of 884.9MHz and 250MHz were achieved with 84K and 56K gates respectively using the 90nm technology.
