Method of elliptic curve cryptographic digital signature generation and verification using reduced base tau expansion in non-adjacent form

摘要

A method of generating and verifying a digital signature by selecting an elliptic curve; selecting a point G; generating x and M; reducing x; generating a base tau expansion, in non-adjacent form, of the reduced x; multiplying G by the expansion; computing h=Hash(M); generating k; reducing k; generating a base tau expansion, in non-adjacent form, of the reduced k; multiplying G by the expansion of k to form K=(K_x,K_y); computing R=(K_x mod q); returning to the step of generating k if R=0, otherwise computing S=(k{circumflex over ( )}−1)(h+xR); returning to the step of generating k if S=0, otherwise transmitting y, q, M, R, and S; receiving y, q, M, R, and S; proceeding with the next step if 0Rq and 0Sq, otherwise not verifying the digital signature and stopping; forming h=Hash(M); computing f=((S{circumflex over ( )}−1) mod q), b=(hf mod q), and t=(Rf mod q); reducing b and t; generating a base tau expansion, in non-adjacent form, of the reduced b; multiplies G by the result of the last step to form a point B; reduces t; generates a base tau expansion, in non-adjacent form, of the reduced b and t; multiplying G by the expansion of t; computing V=B+T, where V=(V_x,V_y); computing v=(V_x mod q); and verifying the digital signature if v=R, otherwise not verifying the digital signature.
