When Digital Twin Meets 6G: Concepts, Obstacles, and Research Prospects (2409.02008v1)

Published 3 Sep 2024 in cs.NI, cs.AI, and cs.DC

Abstract: The convergence of digital twin technology and the emerging 6G network presents both challenges and numerous research opportunities. This article explores the potential synergies between digital twin and 6G, highlighting the key challenges and proposing fundamental principles for their integration. We discuss the unique requirements and capabilities of digital twin in the context of 6G networks, such as sustainable deployment, real-time synchronization, seamless migration, predictive analytic, and closed-loop control. Furthermore, we identify research opportunities for leveraging digital twin and artificial intelligence to enhance various aspects of 6G, including network optimization, resource allocation, security, and intelligent service provisioning. This article aims to stimulate further research and innovation at the intersection of digital twin and 6G, paving the way for transformative applications and services in the future.
