Network Digital Twin with NTN
Integrating Network Digital Twins (NDTs) with Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs) is crucial for enhancing operational efficiency and service delivery in challenging environments. NDTs enable real-time monitoring and control, allowing for immediate adjustments to network parameters, which is vital in remote areas where connectivity can be unpredictable. They facilitate enhanced planning and optimisation by simulating various scenarios, ensuring that specific quality of service (QoS) requirements, such as latency and bit rates, are consistently met. Moreover, NDTs support the integration of multiple digital twins, providing a comprehensive view of the network ecosystem and enabling seamless connectivity across terrestrial and non-terrestrial systems. This synergy fosters innovation and new business models and ensures that industrial applications can thrive in an increasingly digital landscape.
Proof of Concept Aim
The objective of this PoC is to demonstrate the integration of Network Digital Twins (NDTs) with Process Digital Twins (PDTs) and Computing Digital Twins (CDTs) to enhance real-time optimisation in mobile communication systems. Furthermore, PoC3 seeks to validate the benefits of this integration beyond traditional network planning while establishing a transparent mobile network infrastructure that seamlessly combines terrestrial and non-terrestrial technologies, ensuring reliable connectivity for various applications.
