Popis: Finite field multiplication over GF(2m) is one of the most important arithmetic operations for curve-based cryptosystems, such as elliptic curve cryptosystems and pairing-based cryptosystems. Gaussian normal basis (GNB) multiplier is very suitable for realizing finite field multiplication in curve-based cryptosystems because GNB multiplier is highly efficient in performing square operations of multiplicative inversion, squaring, and exponentiation operations. Therefore, this study will present a digit-serial GNB multiplier with unidirectional systolic array which is suitable for fault-tolerant design and very large scale integrated circuits implementation. The proposed digit-serial GNB multiplier can save about 22% space complexity and requires almost the same time complexity when compared with the existing similar multipliers.
