Internet of Drones (IoD) architecture is designed to support a coordinated access for the airspace using the unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) known as drones Recently, IoD communication environment is extremely useful for various applications in our daily activities Artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled Internet of Things (IoT)-based drone-aided healthcare service is a specialized environment which can be used for different types of tasks, for instance, blood and urine samples collections, medicine delivery and for the delivery of other medical needs including the current pandemic of COVID-19 Due to wireless nature of communication among the deployed drones and their ground station server, several attacks (for example, replay, man-in-the-middle, impersonation and privileged-insider attacks) can be easily mounted by malicious attackers To protect such attacks, the deployment of effective authentication, access control and key management schemes are extremely important in the IoD environment Furthermore, combining the blockchain mechanism with deployed authentication make it more robust against various types of attacks To mitigate such issues, we propose a private-blockchain based framework for secure communication in an IoT-enabled drone-aided healthcare environment The blockchain-based simulation of the proposed framework has been carried out to measure its impact on various performance parameters © 2020 Association for Computing Machinery
