Abstract

In recent years, the Internet of Things has developed rapidly. With the popularity of 5G, the Internet of Things is about to enter every corner of our lives. With the popularization of IoT devices, a large amount of data will be generated, which includes all aspects of people’s lives. Therefore, data has become one of the important commodities. This paper proposes a solution for Internet of Things data transactions through the “payment channel network” (PCN) technology based on blockchain. The use of PCN technology based on blockchain not only guarantees the security of data, conforms to the characteristics of IoT data decentralization, but also ensures the transaction rate, and solves the problem of long delay and slow transaction rate in traditional blockchain technology. In this article, we constructed a PCN-based transaction model, and compared the transaction delay based on blockchain and the transaction delay based on PCN through experiments.
