The papers in this special section focuses on cybertwin-driven 6G mobile communications for V2X applications. Digital twin is envisioned to enhance functionalities of future electric and autonomous vehicles. Serving as the digital representation of a vehicle on the application layer, digital twin models the entire lifecycle of processes and services of the vehicle. To provide fundamental support for digital twin from network and transport layers, an agent service, namely Cybertwin, acts as the communication, mobility, and security agent for each user entity (either human or thing) at the edge of the network. Specifically, Cybertwin, serving as a communication anchor, is the only entrance point of the user for the Internet and records all the user states and behaviors. In addition, Cybertwin can become the personal AI assistant and act as a security agent through customizing the visibility of recorded data. By enhancing edge intelligence and providing composite edge services, Cybertwin can support advanced vehicle-to-everything (V2X) applications in the future intelligent and secure vehicular 6G network.

客座社论介绍 Cyber​​twin 驱动的 6G V2X 应用特别章节


本专题部分的论文重点关注用于 V2X 应用的 cybertwin 驱动的 6G 移动通信。数字孪生预计将增强未来电动汽车和自动驾驶汽车的功能。数字孪生作为车辆在应用层的数字表示，对车辆流程和服务的整个生命周期进行建模。为了从网络和传输层为数字孪生提供基础支持，代理服务（即 Cyber​​twin）充当网络边缘每个用户实体（人或物）的通信、移动性和安全代理。具体来说，Cyber​​twin作为通信锚点，是用户接入互联网的唯一入口，记录了用户的所有状态和行为。此外，Cyber​​twin还可以通过定制记录数据的可见性，成为个人人工智能助理并充当安全代理。通过增强边缘智能并提供复合边缘服务，Cyber​​twin可以支持未来智能安全的车载6G网络中先进的车联网（V2X）应用。
