Experimental Results of the MANET4E experiment (Fed4FIRE+)

Aim of the experiment was to research a new communication approach using mobile peer-to-peer network technologies in combination with a new blockchain solution and services. The combination of both technological parts should enable the development of future decentralized and self-organizing energy management systems.

In this Fed4FIRE+ Stage-2 experiment, we analysed the blockchain behaviour in the peer-to-peer network and identified the optimal blockchain configuration (block size, distribution rates, distribution of the blocks, packet loss, etc.) in the imec w-iLab.1 testbed. The measurements were carried out in the imec w-iLab.1 testbed in Ghent, Belgium. More details can be found in the deliverables and final report of the MANET4E project.
