Efficiency identity-based threshold group signature scheme by LIU Hong-wei 1, 2, XIE Wei-xin 2, YU Jian-ping 2

“…Threshold group signature was used to guarantee the security of the collective decision.To improve the efficiency,a new identity-based cryptography threshold group signature scheme was proposed basing on bilinear pairing and secret sharing.In this scheme,the master key was distributed into the whole group and the user’s signature key was stored in a threshold way,these methods ensured the whole security of signature systems.The scheme with a identity-based t-out-of-n secret sharing algorithm was highly-efficient.The careful analysis and the comparison of computational efficiency show that this scheme is secure and efficient.…”

Sensitivity analysis of the channel estimation deviation to the MAP decoding algorithm by WAN Ke, FAN Ping-zhi

“…As a necessary input parameter for MAP decoding algorithm,SNR was normally obtained from the channel estimation unit.Corresponding research indicated that SNR estimation deviation degraded significantly the performance of Turbo decoding.MAP decoding algorithm with SNR estimation deviation was investigated in details,and the degradation mechanism of Turbo decoding was explained analytically.The theoretical analysis and computer simulation have disclosed the specific reasons for the performance degradation when SNR estimation is less than the actual value,and for the higher sensitivity of SNR estimation to long frame Turbo codes.…”
