Overview

The WiMAX™ security standard IEEE 802.16e utilizes the NIST standard AES in CCM mode.  The CCM mode combines the counter mode of encryption with the CBC-MAC mode of authentication and uses 128-bit key AES.  WiMAX™ security also specifies the use of additional data encryption / authentication methods, including AES in CTR mode and AES CMAC.

The JetCCM^tm-6 core is optimized for 802.16e applications by supporting the various AES modes.  The core includes our fully verified JetAES^tm cryptographic core and supports encryption, decryption, authentication, and verification functionalities.  Its design is fully synchronous for portability.  The core is available for licensing in both source and netlist form.
