摘要:

区块链技术凭借去中心化和加密等特性被用于物联网(IoT),然而传统区块链在IoT环境下存在扩展性差、延迟高、密码组件消耗高、共识计算复杂和数据存储规模大等问题。针对传统区块链在IoT设备中性能不佳的问题,对区块链轻量化技术进行综述。首先,将区块链架构分为单链结构和有向无环图(DAG)结构,并比较了两类区块链架构中的轻量化操作;其次,从迭代结构、压缩函数和硬件实现方面分析轻量级hash函数;再次,介绍共识算法和存储中的轻量化方案;最后,结合文献调研成果归纳总结区块链轻量化技术的设计思路,展望未来的研究方向。

Abstract:

Blockchain technology is used in Internet of Things (IoT) due to its characteristics of decentralization and encryption. However, the traditional blockchain has problems such as poor scalability, high latency, high consumption of cryptographic components, complex consensus computing and large data storage scale in IoT environment. In view of the poor performance of traditional blockchain in IoT devices, the lightweight technology of blockchain was reviewed. Firstly, the blockchain architectures were divided into single-chain structure and Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) structure, and the lightweight operations in the two types of blockchain architectures were compared. Secondly, the lightweight hash function was analyzed from the perspectives of iterative structure, compression function and hardware implementation. Thirdly, the consensus algorithms and the lightweight schemes in storage were introduced. Finally, the design ideas of blockchain lightweight technology were summarized based on the literature research results, and the future research directions were prospected.

Key words: blockchain, Internet of Things (IoT), lightweight, hash function, consensus algorithm, storage scalability
