Lightweight Cryptography and RFID: Tackling the Hidden Overhead
Axel Y. Poschmann, Matthew J. B. Robshaw, Frank Vater, Christof Paar · KSII Transactions on Internet and Information Systems · 2010
The field of lightweight cryptography has developed significantly over recent years and many impressive implementation results have been published.However these results are often concerned with a core computation and when it comes to a real implementation there can be significant hidden overheads.In this paper we consider the case of cryptoGPS and we outline a full implementation that has been fabricated in ASIC.Interestingly, the implementation requirements still remain within the typically-cited limits for on-the-tag cryptography.
