Nowdays, homes and small businesses rely more and more PON(Passive Optical Networks) for financial transactions, private communications and even telemedicine. Thus, encryption for these data transactions is very essential due to the multicast nature of the PON In this parer, we presented our implementation of a counter mode AES based on Virtex4 FPGA. Our design exploits three advanced features; 1) Composite field arithmetic SubByte, 2) efficient MixColumn transformation 3) and on-the-fly key-scheduling for fully pipelined architecture. By pipeling the composite field implementation of the S-box, the area cost is reduced to average 17 percent. By designing the on-the-fly key-scheduling, we implemented an efficient key-expander module which is specialized for a pipelined architecture.

A small-area and high-speed authentication/security processor (WUSB_Sec) IP is designed, which performs the 4-way handshake protocol for authentication between host and device, and data encryption/decryption of wireless USB system. The PRF-256 and PRF-64 are implemented by CCM (Counter mode with CBC-MAC) operation, and the CCM is designed with two AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) encryption coles working concurrently for parallel processing of CBC mode and CTR mode operations. The AES core that is an essential block of the WUSB_Sec processor is designed by applying composite field arithmetic on AF$(((2^2)^2)^2)$. Also, S-Box sharing between SubByte block and key scheduler block reduces the gate count by 10%. The designed WUSB_Sec processor has 25,000 gates and the estimated throughput rate is about 480Mbps at 120MHz clock frequency.
