In this scheme the length of the signature is independent of the number of members of the group and it supports message recovery feature. In case, some members left the group or joins the group, the group signature remains valid. All valid signatures are traceable by only the group manager. Every member of the group has a pair of secret keys: one is generated by the member himself and the other is provided by the group manager. Neither the group manager nor any group members can produce a valid signature on behalf of a member. The proposed scheme provides signer’s anonymity, i.e., the verifier can verify the group signature by knowing only the group’s public information. This scheme has wide applications in real life scenarios, such as, e-cash, eauction, press releases and secures electronic transactions.}, }
