Abstract

In this paper, we present a new addition operation on Hessian curves with low cost. It can be applied to resist the side channel attacks for scalar multiplication, and also can be used to compute precomputation points for window-based scalar multiplication on Hessian curves over prime fields. We propose two new precomputation schemes that are shown to achieve the lowest cost among all known methods. By using the fractional $w$NAF and fractional $wmb$NAF, if $n=192$ bits and $1I\approx30M$, scheme 1 can save up to $31M$, scheme 2 can save up to $28M$ with $w\geq 6$, where $I$, $M$ represent the inversion and the multiplication, respectively.
