Recently, Internet of Drones (IoD) has emerged as an important topic to research in academy and industry due to its generic services for various drone applications. In an IoD environment, the deployed drones and the ground station server (GSS) communicate over an open network which leads to security and privacy breaches. To mitigate these issues, a blockchain driven authentication and key establishment protocol for secure communication in IoD has been designed (in short, it is called as BAKP-IoDA). The security analysis of BAKP-IoDA shows its robustness against different attacks. During the performance comparison, it has been observed that BAKP-IoDA maintains superior security along with extra functionality features with the competing schemes. Additionally, the blockchain based practical demonstration of BAKP-IoDA shows its impact on various important network performance parameters, like computation time and transactions per second.
