A method is presented to compute square roots of finite field elements from the prime finite field of characteristic p over which points lie on a defined elliptic curve. Specifically, while performing point decompression of points that lie on a standardized elliptic curve over a prime finite field of characteristic 2 224 -2 96 +1, the present method utilizes short Lucas subsequences to optimize the implementation of a modified version of Mueller's square root algorithm, to find the square root modulo of a prime number. The resulting method is at least twice as fast as standard methods employed for square root computations performed on elliptic curves. |
