Abstract

Resilient data transmission in mobile networks is one of the biggest challenges that researchers and research groups are addressing. In mobile multi-hop network environments, different types of routing protocols are used for data transmission and routing, however, in Fifth-generation (5G) network environments, it is necessary to route and transmit data using protocols and methods that can respond to the specific characteristics and requirements of a given type of network. To this end, we propose a resilient data transmission method based on game theory and decentralized blockchain technology. The proposed method provides routing in the network using communities of nodes that are formed based on previous experience and Quality of Service (QoS) parameters. From the experimental simulations and the achieved QoS parameters, it can be analyzed that the proposed model can be an alternative method for routing and communication in networks without infrastructure, especially in situations when the network is attacked by different types of attacks and the impact of inappropriate mobile nodes on routing and communication, respectively.
