Abstract

The future generation of heterogeneous wireless networks (HWNs) will combine various radio access technologies for connecting various mobile subscribers (MS) based on the quality of service (QoS) and wireless network parameters, connecting MS to the best possible wireless network (WN) has been a trending research topic in HWNs. Existing resource optimization methods are designed to meet the QoS of network criteria and user preferences are neglected. Very limited work is done for resource optimization considering user preferences. However, these models are designed considering multi-mode terminals (MMTs) running a single service at a time under a low-density network; as a result, cannot be adopted to run multiple services simultaneously and; thus, fail to meet current users’ service dynamics requirement. Further, fails to bring good tradeoffs between reducing interference and improving performance. In addressing the research problem this work introduced a hybrid resource optimization strategy (HROS) to reduce interference by establishing channel availability and enhancing resource utilization through game theory. The HROS proves the existence of nash equilibrium (NE) improves throughput by 16.32% and reduces collision by 26.16% over the existing resource optimization-based network selection (RONS) scheme.

Abstract

Information-centric networks (ICNs) face challenges in ensuring content integrity and authentication while preserving user privacy. Homomorphic encryption has been widely used to protect content privacy within ICNs. Blockchain technology is widely applied in ICNs to ensure content integrity. Conventional blockchain-based authentication schemes rely on computationally expensive homomorphic encryption to perform secure data transmission. Also, the existing cryptography methods comprise confidentiality, and integrity while sharing content in ICNs. This paper proposes a novel lightweight blockchain-based homomorphic integrity and authentication (Light-BHIA) scheme to increase the integrity and privacy of content within ICNs. This scheme leverages the transparency and immutability of blockchain, the privacy-preserving properties of homomorphic encryption, and decentralized trust mechanisms to achieve secure and verifiable content delivery. The proposed work utilizes a lightweight homomorphic encryption scheme specifically designed for ICNs, reducing computational burdens by using resource-constrained devices. Light-BHIA uses the permissioned blockchain with an efficient consensus mechanism for increasing the trustworthiness of content delivery within ICNs. Authorized recipients can perform integrity and authentication checks on the encrypted content without decryption, maintaining confidentiality. The comparative study reveals proposed scheme achieved a 25% reduction in registration delay and confirms higher integrity, privacy, and confidentiality.
