Abstract

This article introduces the concept of proof of authentication (PoAh) for the lightweight implementation of blockchains in the Internet of Things (IoT). The PoAh can replace existing consensus algorithms, such as proof of work (PoW), proof of stake (PoS), and proof of activity (PoA), for resource- and energyconstrained infrastructures, such as the IoT.
