TChain: A Privacy-Preserving Consortium Blockchain for Parking Charge Management
Pages 210 - 216
Abstract
With the rapid development of intelligent transportation system, parking charge management shows a trend of digitization and intelligence, which improves the efficiency and brings great convenience in parking charge service. Nevertheless, exposure of vehicle-track and traffic transaction information become potential threats that have been ignored by most parking management system. In building intelligent transportation systems, privacy and security issues should be addressed first. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical consortium blockchain TChain and build our practical solutions with parking charges as a typical scenario, which contains on-chain and off-chain ledger interaction model. Specifically, to prevent malicious collection and use of on-chain information, we introduce Pedersen commitment and Token mechanism to anonymize the content of blockchain data and conceal the relationships of transactions. Besides, we analyze and perform a series of vital experiments to verify the effectiveness and security of our proposed solution.
