Age of Information Analysis in Hyperledger Fabric Blockchain-enabled Monitoring Networks

28 Oct 2020  ·  Minsu Kim, Sungho Lee, Chanwon Park, Jemin Lee ·

Age of information (AoI) is a recently proposed metric for quantifying data freshness in real-time status monitoring systems where timeliness is of importance. In this paper, we explore the data freshness in the Hyperledger Fabric Blockchain-enabled monitoring network (HeMN) by leveraging the AoI metric. In HeMN, status updates from sources are transmitted through an uplink and recorded in a Hyperledger Fabric (HLF) network. To provide a stochastic guarantee of data freshness, we derive a closed-form of AoI violation probability by considering the transmission latency and the consensus latency. Then, we validate our analytic results through the implemented HLF platform. We also investigate the effect of the target successful transmission probability (STP) on the AoI violation probability.
