摘      要：Wireless sensor networks(WSNs)and Internet of Things(IoT)have gained more popularity in recent years as an underlying infrastructure for connected devices and sensors in smart *** data generated from these sensors are used by smart cities to strengthen their infrastructure,utilities,and public *** are suitable for long periods of data acquisition in smart *** make the networks of smart cities more reliable for sensitive information,the blockchain mechanism has been *** key issues and challenges of WSNs in smart cities is efficiently scheduling the resources;leading to extending the network lifetime of *** this paper,a linear network coding(LNC)for WSNs with blockchain-enabled IoT devices has been *** consumption of energy is reduced for each node by applying *** efficiency and the reliability of the proposed model are evaluated and compared to those of the existing *** from the simulation demonstrate that the proposed model increases the efficiency in terms of the number of live nodes,packet delivery ratio,throughput,and the optimized residual energy compared to other current techniques.
