Design and Realization of Threshold Secret Sharing Scheme with Random Weights
Zhenjun Ye, Fang Zhen-ming, Chunfeng Wang, Meng Fanzhen · Journal of Systems Engineering and Electronics · 2009
A new threshold secret sharing scheme is constructed by introducing the concept of share vector, in which the number of shareholders can be adjusted by randomly changing the weights of them. This kind of scheme overcomes the limitation of the static weighted secret sharing schemes that cannot change the weights in the process of carrying out and the deficiency of low efficiency of the ordinary dynamic weighted sharing schemes for its resending process. Thus, this scheme is more suitable to the case that the number of shareholders needs to be changed randomly during the scheme is carrying out.
