A Blockchain Enhanced Dynamic Spectrum Sharing Model Based on Proof-of-Strategy

With the increasing requirement of spectral efficiency in 6G mobile networks, the Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) proposed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is considered as the potential dynamic spectrum sharing solution. Traditional CBRS suffers high administrative expense and privacy risk. In addition, conventional consensus methods in blockchain consume excessive computing power or lack well-founded consensus standard. In this paper, we propose a distributed CBRS-Blockchain model with a specialized consensus method, which is able to reduce administrative expense of dynamic access system. Based on the ring signature techniques, a privacy protection method is proposed. Furthermore, we design a new consensus method named as proof-of-strategy, which combines with the process of spectrum allocation. The proposed method not only provides well-founded consensus mechanism, but also prevents spectrum allocation system from the event of single point failure. Simulation results show the divergent privacy protection for legal users and malicious users, as well as the system utility under the proposed consensus method.
