Demo: A Digital Twin of the 5G Radio Access Network for Anomaly Detection Functionality
This addresses network reliability issues for 5G operators, but it appears incremental as it applies an existing digital twin concept to a specific domain.
The paper tackles the problem of anomaly detection in 5G radio access networks by proposing a digital twin framework, resulting in near real-time capability for proactive resource control and connection restoration.
Recently, the concept of digital twins (DTs) has received significant attention within the realm of 5G/6G. This demonstration shows an innovative DT design and implementation framework tailored toward integration within the 5G infrastructure. The proposed DT enables near real-time anomaly detection capability pertaining to user connectivity. It empowers the 5G system to proactively execute decisions for resource control and connection restoration.
