ID-based cryptography has been one of the most active areas of research to the cryptographic society since bilinear pairings are introduced as a cryptographic tool. From early 2000s several ID-based signature schemes have been proposed and most of these schemes are based on ElGamal signature scheme and its variants. In this work we try to generalize this approach and we obtain numerous ID-based signature schemes, which have not been proposed before.
