Summary :

This paper presents implementation techniques of fast Ate pairing of embedding degree 12. In this case, we have no trouble in finding a prime order pairing friendly curve E such as the Barreto-Naehrig curve y2=x3+a, aFp. For the curve, an isomorphic substitution from G2E(Fp12 into G'2 in subfield-twisted elliptic curve E'(Fp2) speeds up scalar multiplications over G2 and wipes out denominator calculations in Miller's algorithm. This paper mainly provides about 30% improvement of the Miller's algorithm calculation using proper subfield arithmetic operations. Moreover, we also provide the efficient parameter settings of the BN curves. When p is a 254-bit prime, the embedding degree is 12, and the processor is Pentium4 (3.6 GHz), it is shown that the proposed algorithm computes Ate pairing in 13.3 milli-seconds including final exponentiation.
