| Abstract |
Blockchain has broad application prospects in Smart City, and the technical characteristics of the blockchain itself can solve the problems of mistrust of network resource production relations and unfair distribution of revenue. However, most of the devices in Smart City are mobile devices with insufficient resources. The demand for computing power of the mining process cannot be met. For this, we introduce mobile edge computing, deploy edge servers on the edge side, and provide resources for mobile devices. We build an edge network resource allocation model for mobile blockchain to realize the effective application of blockchain technology in mobile environments. The resources required by the mining process can be obtained from neighboring resource sharing devices or edge servers. The resource allocation between adjacent devices can be modeled as a two-way auction model, and the Bayesian-Nash equilibrium is solved to determine the optimal price, while considering the trusted value of the device; the process of the mobile device acquiring resources from the edge server can be modeled as a two-stage Stackelberg game. Finally, simulation experiments show that this mechanism achieves a higher personal utility than an existing model that only considers requesting resources from an edge server. |
