Blockchain Integrated Intelligent Monitoring System for Wireless Sensor Network

Security is a significant challenge in both wired and wireless networks. Data security has recently become a major concern in wireless sensor networks, particularly when data is sent to other systems. Any active node in a wireless sensor network is either collecting information from other active nodes or sending data to other active nodes. This research is primarily concerned with security based on authentication and authorization processes using blockchain technology. Blockchain-based security includes an intelligent monitoring system that monitors all active nodes in the network that are transferring data. This research study intends to design and develop a probabilistic mathematical model to monitor the functioning of each node based on the network activities. This is monitored by the blockchain enabled intelligent monitoring system. In this study, the proposed method measures network performance using four performance metrics: Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), Network Lifetime (NLT), Residual Energy (RE), and Detection Accuracy (DA). This research work is entirely based on blockchain-enabled wireless sensor network (WSN) security.
