Patent

CA 2239372

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for decompressing elliptic curve points in cryptographic systems, wherein an elliptic curve point on an elliptic curve f(x) is defined over a field f p where p is either 3 mod 4 or 5 mod 8 and p is sparsely represented, the method comprising extracting a square root ~ f (x) including calculating exponents comprised of a success series of 1's in a binary expansion of the exponent and combining these exponents together with an appropriate number of squarings and multiplications to obtain a desired square root, the square root being a solution said curve.
