Sumario: | Considering the computation resources available with sensor devices and the value and validity of Cognitive Wireless Communication Network (CWCN), traditional blockchain is not feasible for CWCN. Further, considering the security and privacy for CWCN that can directly impact human life (as in the case of ambient assisted living applications), blockchain provides a good solution for such applications, however, with some simplicity in the computation of Proof of Work (PoW). Therefore, the fourth objective solution comes up with a simplified energy-efficient blockchain implementation for CWCN that consumes less energy in computation time. The energy-hungry blockchain has been implemented on resource-constrained CWCN for ambient assisted living applications specialized for elderly care. The process includes a collection of physical environmental parameters on a single board computer-based CWCN. The implementation includes possible simplification in the most energy-consuming process, i.e., the mining process, which makes it energy efficient in computation time as energy consumption is a computation time factor. |
