Towards a Regulation Compliant Crowdsourcing Mechanism in XG Through Multichain-Blockchain

The collection and processing of data is vital in almost all domains of current and future technological developments and their sustainability. Wireless communication technologies are no exception to this and over the years substantial work has been done in this domain to achieve better data rates and better coverage areas. In real-time systems where wireless networks work, the number of interdependent factors is numerous making the simulated environments restricted for performance analysis and tweaking. Hence, crowdsourcing becomes a very suitable candidate for the collection of data for various under-lying purposes especially in the future generation called XG of wireless technologies. But, crowdsourcing has various challenges one of which is to ensure the system is compliant with various international policies for data collection storage, and processing guidelines. In this proposed ecosystem, a blockchain-based transparent logic and data crowdsourcing mechanism is used. The use of multichain blockchains is explored to find the viability and experiment with challenges in performing the same. The proposed underlying mechanisms are subjected to various use cases related to compliance rules. The evaluations support the viability of the proposed system to be explored at a large scale.
