Unleashing the Power of Network Digital Twins in a 5G and 6G World

Overseeing Modern Networks Demands the Implementation of Digital Replicas

Welcome to the future of telecommunications management - network digital twins! This cutting-edge technology revolutionizes how operators handle complex 5G and 6G networks, ushering in a new era of network flexibility, scalability, and efficiency.

What's the Scoop on Network Digital Twins?

Network digital twins provide a digitally replicated mirror of an operator's hybrid network infrastructure, incorporating physical, virtual, and logical components. This means the physical infrastructure, represented by RAN tech like base stations and antenna sites, data centers, edge data centers, and points of presence (PoPs), as well as the virtualized network infrastructure such as virtual RAN (vRAN), cloud RAN (C-RAN), transport, and core virtual network functions (VNFs).

The Smart Way to Handle the Complexity of 5G and 6G Networks

As operators gear up for the 5G and 6G revolution, they face an increasing need for effective network management solutions. Network digital twins step in, offering a centralized, real-time source of truth to provide operators a comprehensive view of their networks.

The implementation of 5G networks is set to skyrocket from 23.2% of global SIMs in 2024 to a whopping 57.8% in 2028 (Juniper Research). This expansion necessitates continuous expansions to our 5G networks, boosting the extent of network virtualization and thus management complexity. Similarly, the advent of 6G in 2029 will bring significant complexity due to the deployment of a myriad of base stations, reconfigurable intelligent surfaces, and more.

Network Digital Twins: Kickin' It Old School vs. New Tricks

No more expecting insights from a plethora of network hardware and software, with limited data-gathering capabilities! Network digital twins supercharge the management process by offering in-depth insights into network resources, node configurations, and various scenarios, providing automation for configurations, troubleshooting, planning, and more.
