Considerando o crescimento da rede IoT, existe uma demanda por uma solução descentralizada. A incorporação da tecnologia blockchain eliminará os desafios enfrentados em soluções centralizadas, como i) alta infraestrutura, ii) custo de manutenção, iii) falta de transparência, iv) privacidade e v) adulteração de dados. A rede IoT baseada em Blockchain permite que as empresas acessem e compartilhem os dados IoT dentro de sua organização sem uma autoridade central. Os dados na blockchain são armazenados como blocos, que devem ser validados e adicionados à cadeia, pois este mecanismo de consenso desempenha um papel significativo. No entanto, os métodos existentes não são projetados para aplicações IoT e carecem de recursos como i) descentralização, ii) escalabilidade, iii) rendimento, iv) convergência mais rápida e v) sobrecarga de rede. Além disso, as atuais estruturas de blockchain não conseguiram suportar aplicações IoT com recursos limitados. Neste artigo, propusemos um novo método de consenso (WoG) e uma estrutura de blockchain leve (iLEDGER), principalmente para aplicativos de IoT com recursos limitados em um ambiente autorizado. O trabalho proposto é testado em uma aplicação que rastreia os ativos utilizando dispositivos IoT (Raspberry Pi 4 e RFID). Além disso, o método de consenso proposto é analisado em relação a falhas benignas, e parâmetros de desempenho como uso de CPU, uso de memória, taxa de transferência, tempo de execução de transação e tempo de geração de bloco são comparados com métodos de última geração.

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.
