In a quantum partially blind signature (QPBS) scheme, the contradiction between anonymity and controllability of completely blind signature (BS) schemes was better solved by adding common negotiated public information between the signer and the requester (the message holder). After reviewing the proposed scheme, we give an analysis about it and then propose a novel QPBS scheme without entanglement. The security without preconditions of this signature scheme is ensured by the secure quantum key distribution (QKD) protocol and quantum one-time pad (QOTP). Furthermore, in the process of security analysis, it proves that our scheme satisfies the foundational attribution of partially blind signature (PBS). Moreover, the scheme can solve the problem we put forward so as to allow it to have a wider application in the future.
