Compte tenu de la croissance du réseau IoT, il existe une demande pour une solution décentralisée. L'intégration de la technologie blockchain éliminera les défis rencontrés dans les solutions centralisées, tels que i) une infrastructure élevée, ii) le coût de maintenance, iii) le manque de transparence, iv) la confidentialité et v) la falsification des données. Le réseau IoT basé sur la blockchain permet aux entreprises d'accéder et de partager les données IoT au sein de leur organisation sans autorité centrale. Les données de la blockchain sont stockées sous forme de blocs, qui doivent être validés et ajoutés à la chaîne, car ce mécanisme de consensus joue un rôle important. Cependant, les méthodes existantes ne sont pas conçues pour les applications IoT et manquent de fonctionnalités telles que i) la décentralisation, ii) l'évolutivité, iii) le débit, iv) une convergence plus rapide et v) la surcharge du réseau. De plus, les cadres de blockchain actuels ne parviennent pas à prendre en charge les applications IoT aux ressources limitées. Dans cet article, nous avons proposé une nouvelle méthode de consensus (WoG) et un framework blockchain léger (iLEDGER), principalement pour les applications IoT aux ressources limitées dans un environnement autorisé. Le travail proposé est testé dans une application qui suit les actifs à l'aide d'appareils IoT (Raspberry Pi 4 et à la RFID). En outre, la méthode de consensus proposée est analysée par rapport aux défaillances bénignes, et les paramètres de performances tels que l'utilisation du processeur, l'utilisation de la mémoire, le débit, le temps d'exécution des transactions et le temps de génération de blocs sont comparés aux méthodes de pointe.

Abstract: Considering the growth of the IoT network, there is a demand for a decentralized solution. Incorporating the blockchain technology will eliminate the challenges faced in centralized solutions, such as i) high infrastructure, ii) maintenance cost, iii) lack of transparency, iv) privacy, and v) data tampering. Blockchain-based IoT network allows businesses to access and share the IoT data within their organization without a central authority. Data in the blockchain are stored as blocks, which should be validated and added to the chain, for this consensus mechanism plays a significant role. However, existing methods are not designed for IoT applications and lack features like i) decentralization, ii) scalability, iii) throughput, iv) faster convergence, and v) network overhead. Moreover, current blockchain frameworks failed to support resource-constrained IoT applications. In this paper, we proposed a new consensus method (WoG) and a lightweight blockchain framework (iLEDGER), mainly for resource-constrained IoT applications in a permissioned environment. The proposed work is tested in an application that tracks the assets using IoT devices (Raspberry Pi 4 and RFID). Furthermore, the proposed consensus method is analyzed against benign failures, and performance parameters such as CPU usage, memory usage, throughput, transaction execution time, and block generation time are compared with state-of-the-art methods.
