    Device for the conversion of a digital block and use of same 
    Thumbnail
    Inventor(s):
    James L. Massey, Xuejia Lai
    Patent Number:
    EP 0482154B1
    Description:

    The device (12) comprises nine coding stages (61.1, 61.2, 69), the first eight of which are of identical construction. It also comprises a coding partial block generation unit (63), an input unit (21) and an output unit (79). It is used for the blockwise coding of a plain text (X) from an information source (11) into a coded text (Y) to be taken to a transmission line (13), whereby a secret code block (Z) is previously introduced via a secure channel (17). Coding takes place stepwise and in p…

    Device for the conversion of a digital block and use of same 
    Description
    The device (12) comprises nine coding stages (61.1, 61.2, 69), the first eight of which are of identical construction. It also comprises a coding partial block generation unit (63), an input unit (21) and an output unit (79). It is used for the blockwise coding of a plain text (X) from an information source (11) into a coded text (Y) to be taken to a transmission line (13), whereby a secret code block (Z) is previously introduced via a secure channel (17). Coding takes place stepwise and in parallel for four partial blocks (X1 - X4; W11 - W14; W21 - W24; W81 - W84; Y1 - Y4) at a time. To this end, each coding stage (61.1, 61.2, 60) has four first inputs (25 - 28; 35 - 38), six or four second inputs (29, 30, 32, 33, 49, 52; 129, 130, 132, 133) and four outputs (75 - 78).; At the second inputs there are a total of fifty-two coding partial blocks (Z1 - Z52) formed from the code block (Z). The device (12) may also be used unchanged for decoding an incoming cipher text (Y). For this purpose it is merely necessary to apply other code partial blocks to the second inputs.

    Patent Number:
    US 5214703
    Description:

    The device (12) comprises nine encryption stages (61.1, 61.2, 69), the first eight of which are constructed identically. It further comprises a key subblock generation unit (63), an input unit (21), and an output unit (79). It serves for the block-by-block encryption of a plaintext (X) proceeding from a message source (11) into a ciphertext (Y) to be delivered on a transmission line (13), wherein a secret key block (Z) is inputted beforehand via a secure channel 17. The encryption is effected…

    Description
    The device (12) comprises nine encryption stages (61.1, 61.2, 69), the first eight of which are constructed identically. It further comprises a key subblock generation unit (63), an input unit (21), and an output unit (79). It serves for the block-by-block encryption of a plaintext (X) proceeding from a message source (11) into a ciphertext (Y) to be delivered on a transmission line (13), wherein a secret key block (Z) is inputted beforehand via a secure channel 17. The encryption is effected in a step-by-step and parallel manner for four subblocks (X.sub.1 -X.sub.4 ; W.sub.11 -W.sub.14 ; W.sub.21 -W.sub.24 ; W.sub.81 -W.sub.84 ; Y.sub.1 -Y.sub.4). Every encryption stage (61.1, 61.2, 69) comprises four first inputs (25-28; 35-38), six and four second inputs (29, 30, 32, 33, 49, 52; 129, 130, 132, 133), respectively, and four outputs (75-78). A total of fifty-two key subblocks (Z.sub.1 -Z.sub.52) which are formed from the key block (Z) are connected to the second inputs. The device (12) can also serve, without being altered, for the decryption of an incoming ciphertext (Y). Different key subblocks need only be connected to the second inputs for this purpose.
