AI-Centric D2D in 6G Networks

Abstract

As a fundamental component of 6G, Device-to-Device (D2D) communication facilitates direct connections between devices without base stations. In order to support advanced AI applications in ubiquitous scenarios, in this letter, we propose an AI-centric D2D communication infrastructure upon mobile devices, addressing current challenges in bandwidth and transmission speed. This approach aims to leverage 6G’s potential to create more efficient, reliable, and intelligent wireless communication systems, bridging the gap between AI and next-generation D2D communication. The results from real-world case study and simulation show that our design can save time and improve efficiency in D2D transmission and on-device AI processing.
