Abstract

6G communication networks are expected to become an integral part of the infrastructure needed for developing a smart society in the future. Addressing the challenges on the road towards realizing 6G network requirements in terms of quality of service, user experience, and security, is therefore of utmost importance. The digital twin (DT) technology can potentially improve the efficiency, reliability, and security of 6G networks. Digital twins for mobile networks (DTMNs) are seen as a key factor in harnessing the full benefits of 6G. Using digital twins can help address several problems, including network optimization, fault diagnosis, and fault management. Furthermore, DTMNs can characterize the physical entities in a 6G network and their relationships to each other, build their virtual models, and use simulation, learning, and reasoning capabilities to make predictions and support informed decision-making.
