  Abstract

In this paper, we propose applying blockchain technology to improve data availability in tactical information and communication networks (called TICNs) operating in tactical environments. TICN has dramatically improved the data rate of existing tactical networks. However, data availability is hardly improved because the data is concentrated on a specific node and link failures between nodes frequently occur due to poor node movement and wireless channel conditions. Therefore, we need to ensure data availability in dynamic networks such as TICN. Blockchain is a distributed data storage technology that ensures data integrity and availability. We apply blockchain technology to TICN to improve data availability. The nodes of the TICN are configured with an authority blockchain network. Each node generates a block with the required data of the subscriber and broadcasts it to the blockchain network. The identified block is connected to the existing blockchain by checking the hash value. Numerical analysis verifies the effectiveness of the proposed method.
