Abstract
A system and method for computing A mod (2−1), where A is an m bit quantity, where n is a positive integer, where m is greater than or equal to n. The quantity A may be partitioned into a plurality of sections, each being at most n bits long. The value A mod (2−1) may be computed by adding the sections in mod(2−1) fashion. This addition of the sections of A may be performed in a single clock cycle using an adder tree, or, sequentially in multiple clock cycles using a two-input adder circuit provided the output of the adder circuit is coupled to one of the two inputs. The computation A mod (2−1) may be performed as a part of an interleaving/deinterleaving operation, or, as part of an encryption/decryption operation.
