Analysis of the Use of Blockchain Consensus in VANET

EasyChair Preprint 6088

Abstract

The article aims to look at existing blockchain conversion models in VANET environments. To expose the advantages and disadvantages and to outline a sensible approach to the use of blockchain for VANET. Analyzes existing blockchain models using the PoW consensus, which require two main approaches: Using less energy-intensive consensus such as Proof of Authority or using cloud services to export PoW's heavy calculations to MeC (Mobile Edge Computing). Last but not least, an adequate legal framework must also be provided.

Keyphrases: Blockchain, MEC, Proof of Stake (POS), Proof of Work (PoW), Proof-of-authority (PoA), VANET
