Comparison of Compact High Speed Reconfigurable RC4 Hardware with the Existing RC4 Hardware
نویسندگان
چکیده
RC4 Stream cipher is well known for its simplicity and ease to develope in software. But here, in the proposed design we have heighlighted the modified hardware implémentation of RC4. As RC4 is the most popular stream cipher. The proposed design performs reading and swapping simultaneously in one clock cycle. The proposed design also highlights the adder part which enhances the architecture speed. As this design uses fast Carry Look Ahead Adder as the adder logic. In this paper we have compared the proposed design with the other existing design which also works on one byte per clock cycle [1].

متن کاملOn the Hardware Implementation of the MUGI Pseudorandom Number Generator
A high-speed hardware implementation of the MUGI pseudorandom number generator is presented in this paper. The MUGI generator is part of the ISO/IEC 18033-4: 2005 standard and it is expected to be used in many applications. The design has been coded in VHDL and FPGA devices have been used for its hardware implementation. A maximum throughput equal to 7 Gbps is achieved for a clock frequency of ...
متن کاملComparison of the Performance of Stream Ciphers for Wireless Communications
In this paper, the hardware implementations of four representative stream ciphers are compared in terms of performance and consumed area. The ciphers used for this comparison are the A5/1, E0, RC4 and Helix. The first three ones have been used for the security part of well-known standards, especially in wireless ones, while the Helix cipher is a recently introduced fast, word oriented, stream c...
متن کاملEfficient FPGA Implementation of the RC4 Stream Cipher using Block RAM and Pipelining
RC4 is a popular stream cipher, which is widely used in many security protocols and standards due to its speed and flexibility. Several hardware implementations were previously suggested in the literature with the goal of improving the performance, area, or both. In this paper, a new hardware implementation of the RC4 algorithm using FPGA is proposed. The main idea of this design is the use of ...
متن کاملOne Byte per Clock: A Novel RC4 Hardware
RC4, the widely used stream cipher, is well known for its simplicity and ease of implementation in software. In case of a special purpose hardware designed for RC4, the best known implementation till date is 1 byte per 3 clock cycles. In this paper, we take a fresh look at the hardware implementation of RC4 and propose a novel architecture which generates 1 keystream byte per clock cycle. Our s...
