HeRo: Heuristic-Based Routing in Payment Channel Networks
Payment channels support off-chain transactions by enhancing transaction speed and reducing fees in the main blockchain. However, the costs and complexity of the network increase as we increase the size of the network. To address these challenges, we propose Heuristic-Based Routing with Scheduling (HeRo) combining heuristic-based routing and scheduling techniques in Payment Channel Networks (PCNs). HeRo achieves a cost reduction of 32.71% and 73.08% compared with multi-charge PCN (MPCN-RP) and Dijkstra algorithms, respectively.
