Abstract

Ternary logic is gaining popularity since it enables realization of complex electronic circuits with fewer active elements than with binary logic. In this short paper we draw the contours of a framework for finding nonlinear combining switching functions for cryptographic applications realized on ternary IoT hardware platforms. We review the theoretical results and criteria related to ternary switching function adequacy for use in cryptography. Our framework computes the Algebraic Normal Form (ANF) of such functions and uses the Vilenkin-Chrestenson spectrum to test their non-linearity and correlation immunity.
