Abstract

\(\mathrm{ECC}^2\) is an public key encryption system based on elliptic code. It can resist known attacks based on the special structures of algebraic geometric code. However, the computational overhead of decryption of \(\mathrm{ECC}^2\) is unsatisfactory, because the list decoding algorithm occupies a major part of the computational overhead of decryption of \(\mathrm{ECC}^2\). Therefore, we propose our module basis reduction interpolation of list decoding for elliptic code to speed up the decryption of \(\mathrm{ECC}^2\). The algorithm we proposed is based on the theory of Gr\(\ddot{\mathrm{o}}\)bner basis of modules. By implementing our proposed algorithm combined with \(\mathrm{ECC}^2\), it shows that the proposed algorithm performs better than the list decoding algorithms used in \(\mathrm{ECC}^2\).
