The following protocol consists of only quantum communication in the distribution phase and only classical communication in the messaging phase. It uses the protocol for QDS with insecure channels [[Measurement Device Independent Quantum Digital Signature (MDI-QDS)#References|(1)]] and replaces KGP (Key generation protocol) with Measurement Device Independent KGP (MDI-KGP). Distribution phase can be divided into the following steps: | The following protocol consists of only quantum communication in the distribution phase and only classical communication in the messaging phase.

*'''Key Distribution:''' Seller uses MDI-KGP twice with Buyer and Verifier, each, to generate four different correlated(?) keys. Both Seller and Receiver have two keys each, one for message bit 0 and one for message bit 1. Sender's signature for a particular message bit is a conjugation of corresponding key for message bit sent to the Buyer and the Verifier. | *'''Key Distribution:''' Seller uses MDI-KGP twice with Buyer and Verifier, each, to generate four different correlated(?) keys.

*'''Symmetrisation:''' Buyer and Verifier exchange half of their randomly chosen eliminated signature elements. This prevents a dishonest seller succeed in cheating by sending dissimilar public keys to the receiver and makes the protocol secure against repudiation. Thus ends the distribution phase. | *'''Symmetrisation:''' Buyer and Verifier exchange half of their randomly chosen eliminated signature elements.
