Abstract
This paper presents a ZUC-256 stream cipher algorithm hardware system in order to prevent the advanced security threats for 5G wireless network. The main innovation of the hardware system is that a six-stage pipeline scheme comprised of initialization and work stage is employed to enhance the solving speed of the critical logical paths. Moreover, the pipeline scheme adopts a novel optimized hardware structure to fast complete the Mod(2<sup>31</sup>−1) calculation. The function of the hardware system has been validated experimentally in detail. The hardware system shows great superiorities. Compared with the same type system in recent literatures, the logic delay reduces by 47% with an additional hardware resources of only 4 multiplexers, the throughput rate reaches 5.26 Gbps and yields at least 45% better performance, the throughput rate per unit area increases 14.8%. The hardware system provides a faster and safer encryption module for the 5G wireless network.
