Abstract EN
One remarkable feature of vehicular ad hoc networks is characterized by an opportunistic communications by means of store-carry-forward message relaying which requires the cooperation of vehicles on the networks.
However, we cannot be sure that all vehicles willingly contribute their computing resources to the networks for message forwarding with no rewards for their efforts in real-world scenarios.
In addition, unfortunately, there may exist some selfish and greedy node which may not help others but tend to take their own gain.
To cope with this challenge, incentive mechanisms are generally considered as the promising solution.
In this paper, we design a Bitcoin-based secure and reliable incentive scheme for cooperative vehicular delay tolerant networking services.
Bitcoin is the well-known worldwide cryptocurrency and digital payment system whose implementation relies on cryptographic techniques, which makes it possible to develop a practical credit-based incentive scheme on the vehicular networks at a low cost.
We also implement Bitcoin transaction scripts to handle our proposed incentive scheme.
