The invention belongs to the technical field of computer networks, and relates to a quick secret
leader election method for a lightweight block
chain network. Comprising the steps that a
server and nodes initialize network basic information; the
server broadcasts signals to all nodes in the network at the agreed power; s3, the node calculates the
path loss of the node and the
server according to the power of the received
signal and the agreed power, the node participates in election with a certain probability, and the node randomly and uniformly generates an ID according to the agreed range and sends the
signal with a certain power; the server monitors the channel, calculates the power sum of the received
signal, sends the received power sum to all nodes, monitors an election termination signal, and stops election if the termination signal exists; and S3, monitoring the channel by the node, judging whether the node becomes a leader or not according to the power sum, if so, sending a termination signal, otherwise, continuing S3. According to the method, rapid election of the secret leader in the lightweight block
chain network with limited performance is considered.
