| Popis: | The Internet of Things (IoT) is increasingly being utilized, by both businesses and individuals, for many\ud applications. This utilization means increases in the smart devices that are connected to the Internet of Things, which\ud will significantly increase the challenges related to devices' interconnectivity and management, data and user privacy,\ud and network, data, and device security. At the same time, blockchain approaches provide a decentralized, immutable,\ud and peer-to-peer ledger technology that could be the right answer to these challenges. Significant challenges, however,\ud accompany the integration of blockchain into the Internet of Things, since IoT smart devices may suffer from resource\ud and power constraints and blockchain is associated with scalability and delay issues. In this paper, a practical\ud incorporation of blockchain into the Internet of Things is demonstrated using Ethereum Proof of Authority (PoA). This\ud provides performance analyses, which include measurement of the transaction arrival time, the system end-to-end\ud latency for different network implementations over cellular and Wi-Fi, and the average power consumption. This includes\ud the study of the effect of network bandwidth on the stability and synchronization of all nodes on the blockchain network. |
