Abstract
In this talk, we mainly introduce our recent studies on Digital Twin (DT) for 6G, Edge Computing, air-ground networks, and IoT. We will first introduce the main concepts and challenges related to Digital Twin. Then, we present a new scenario DITEN (Digital Twin Edge Networks) and the research challenges related to offloading, edge association and resource optimization. Throughout the talk, we join DT and machine learning to add intelligence and present our ideas on utilizing machine learning (e.g., deep reinforcement learning, federated learning) for low-latency, privacy-preservation, and energy-efficiency in 6G and IoT networks.
