Abstract
There are critical security concern along with issues pertaining to privacy and scalability towards
the open-air mode exchange of data in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) networks. The current solutions
are noted to adopt centralized security measure, isolated blockchain, and even federated learning and yet
they cannot mitigate issues pertaining to unreliable fusion of model, communication overhead, and single
point failures. These problems are addressed in proposed study model named as Adaptive Multi-Layer
Blockchain and Federated Learning (AMLB-FL) meant for securing data exchange in UAV networks. The
framework is structured with three layers meant for trust management, blockchain operation, and
anomaly detection with privacy preservation. Experimental outcome shows proposed model to offer
notably higher detection accuracy, lower latency, increased scalability, and increased energy efficiency in
contrast to most relevant baseline models.
