The rising number of cases of cybersecurity attacks has underlined the fundamental importance of addressing security in wireless communications. Blockchain has evolved as a promising solution for various security threats. Meanwhile, AI has become a driving force to run modern technological systems specifically those involving 5G and beyond 5G communications. Blockchain functions such as authentication and consensus can be effectively implemented using AI. Interestingly, block chain can also play a key role in making AI solutions sufficiently robust to defend against security attacks. AI and Blockchain for Wireless Communications: Creating Resilient and Secure Systems describes the merger of AI and blockchain for smooth functioning of secure wireless communications. It covers both sides of blockchain and AI integration - blockchain for assisting AI, such as solutions involving distributed learning and trustworthy AI, and AI solutions designed to support blockchain, such as solutions embedded in smart contracts for automation and authentication. The methods and techniques presented in the book are also supported by use cases that show the practical implementation of AI and blockchain based wireless communication systems. AI and Blockchain for Wireless Communications: Creating Resilient and Secure Systems is suitable for students, researchers and industry engineers in AI, blockchain, and wireless communications. It will help AI developers to grasp the concepts and see the benefits of blockchain integrated with AI, particularly in wireless communications, setting the groundwork for their future development.
