About This Document
This literature review explores the working mechanism of Ring-LWE based public key cryptosystems for lightweight post-quantum cryptography. It describes a specific lattice-based approach for ciphertext compression and error correction without utilizing any public or private key knowledge. The author presents a new algorithm for Ring-LWE and the related decryption algorithm, enabling realization on hardware and microcontroller targets which previously have not allowed implementation of private key operations. However, the literature contains numerous equations and technical terms that require field knowledge to understand, and the conclusion is too short and does not summarize the whole literature.
