Abstract

In many wireless mobile applications, new member joining problem often occurs when a new player hopes to get a share of private key in order to join a multi-player group, which has jointly generated a pair of private and public keys based on some distributed key generation (DKG) protocols. We propose a New-Member-Joining (NMJ) protocol built upon bivariate polynomials based DKG scheme to completely solve the problem. A proof of security of the protocol in terms of correctness and secrecy is present.
