区块链链下支付通道网络的可选择多路径支付方案

Alternative Multipath Payment Scheme of Blockchain Payment Channel Networks

链下支付通道网络存在用户节点无法根据实际需求选择转账方式、单次路由中仅使用单一路径发起交易导致的容错率低等问题。为此,提出一种基于链下支付通道网络的可选择多路径支付方案,可以为用户节点提供基于实际需求的距离最短优先、手续费最低优先以及距离和手续费综合度量3种转发选择;同时基于链下支付通道网络改进了开放最短路径优先协议,并根据节点所选的不同优先级构建多条路径以并行转发支付,相对于已有的方案显著提升了单次路由下转账支付的成功率;最后还设计了接收方节点确认转账成功后可主动释放其他路径的功能,以适当提高支付性能。

The off-chain payment channel network has problems such as the inability of user nodes to choose the transfer method according to actual needs,and the low fault tolerance rate caused by only using a single path to initiate transactions in a single routing.This paper proposes an alternative multipath payment scheme(AMPS)based on the off-chain payment channel network.This scheme provides user nodes with three forwarding options according to actual needs,i.e.,the shortest distance priority,the lowest handling fees priority and the comprehensive measurement of the distance and handling fees.In AMPS,we improve the open shortest path priority protocol and construct multiple paths to forward payments in parallel according to different priorities selected by the nodes.Compared with previous schemes under a single route,the scheme AMPS significantly improves the transfer payment success rate.At the same time,the receiver nodes can actively release other paths once immediately the transfer is successful,which improves the transfer payment performance of the whole network.
