Abstract

In the study, the digital multi-signature scheme, constructed by the integration of one-way hash function and identification scheme, are proposed based on the elliptic curve cryptosystem (ECC). To the efficiency in performance, the ECC has been generally regarded as positive; and the security caused by the Elliptic Curve Discrete Logarithm Problem (ECDLP) is highly also taken highly important. The main characteristic of the proposed scheme is that the length of the multi-signature is fixed rather than changeable and it will not increase with the number of group members.
