Number theoretic transform based multiplication is commonly used in Post-quantum cryptography, which is the most resource-consuming operation. In this paper, we propose an area-efficient modular reduction structure for generalized Mersenne primes with interval prediction, and a novel memory access scheme which fetches two data at the same side of a butterfly unit simultaneously. By the interval prediction structure, some adders are eliminated in a modular multiplication. When implement it in 3-stage pipeline mode and synthesize it with TSMC 90nm process, this structure achieves approximate 14.9% less area compared with other designs. The proposed memory access scheme is an in-place scheme. It is more regular than other designs and the two pieces of memory share the same address. Based on this characteristic, we construct an address generator which consumes 40% less area.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
