This paper proposes an efficient hash chain-based micropayment scheme, which is an offline, prepaid scheme that supports simpler divisibility of digital coins. In the execution of payment protocol, the customer’s dis- bursement and the merchant’s submittal are performed step by step, whoever cannot gain addition profits even if he breaks off the transaction. The hash chain can also be used for transactions with different mer- chants. Unlike other micropayment schemes, e.g., PayWord, no public-key operation is required,which im- proves the efficiency. The scheme also provides restricted anonymity.展开更多

Messages which received and sent during the payment are very simple and public key infrastructure is not needed, which reduces delay and removes the possibility of incomplete payment due to communications failures. Furthermore, all the information related to payment is encrypted by a shared symmetric key in our scheme, so the privacy of the mobile user is protected and the security of information is guaranteed. Compared with other mobile micropayment schemes in existence, no public-key operation is required, which minimizes the computation and storage overhead dramatically. In addition, restricted anonymous is also provided in our scheme.

MSPC consists of one master payword chain and one slave payword chain. On the basis of MSPC, a new micropayment protocol called discrete micropayment protocol (DMP), is presented in this article. DMP consists of three sub-protocols: registration, payment, and settlement. Both part fairness and non-unit-wise payment can be provided by DMP.展开更多
