A novel Dual-Blockchained structure for contract-theoretic LoRa-based information systems

摘要: Abstract LoRa serves as one of the most deployed technologies in Internet-of-Things-based information systems (IoT-IS), and self-motivated deployment is key to rollout LoRa. Proper incentive can play an important role encouraging private LoRa, increasing coverage promoting effective management IoT-IS. However, existing mechanisms have vulnerabilities insecure centralized architecture excessive utility loss Controllers Gateways, due asymmetric between owners gateways controller (or service providers). Blockchain-based networks, a promising solution, not been comprehensively studied address vulnerabilities, let alone other issues security, scalability, flexibility. In this paper, we propose novel Dual-Chained LoRa-based system (LoRa-IS) provide globally cross-validated security. Behaviors, including state-of-the-art contract-theoretic mechanism new flow control protocol, be secured with tamper-resistance Blockchains. Being part proposed mechanism, self-driven allows both Dual-Chain network scale. To best our knowledge, first comprehensive LoRa-IS combined contract theory. We also analysis simulations, showing that pay fair incentives under asymmetry. With control, optimize while improving Blockchain scalability
