Abstract

This paper proposes two attractive classes of Barreto-Naehrig curve for ate-based pairing by imposing certain condition on the integer \(\chi \) that parameterizes the curve settings. The restriction results in an unparalleled way to determine a BN curve, its twisted curve coefficients, and obvious generator points. The proposed \(\chi \equiv 11~(\bmod ~12)\) are found to be more efficient than \(\chi \equiv 7~(\bmod ~12)\) together with pseudo 8-sparse multiplication in Miller’s algorithm. The authors also provide comparative implementations for the proposal.
