How to synchronize Digital Twins? A Communication Performance Analysis
CoRR(2024)
摘要
Synchronization is fundamental for mirroring real-world entities in real-time
and supporting effective operations of Digital Twins (DTs). Such
synchronization is enabled by the communication between the physical and
virtual realms, and it is mostly assumed to occur in real-time. However, this
is not the case, as real-life scenarios witness performance degradation that
may lead to synchronization problems. Hence, as such a problem has yet to be
thoroughly analyzed in the literature, this work attempts to uncover potential
challenges by emulating and analyzing the DT traffic flows in networks of
different scales, for different communication protocols, and with various flow
configurations. We propose a Twin Alignment Ratio metric to evaluate the
synchronization performance to achieve this goal. Consequently, the findings
reveal the interplay of network infrastructure, protocol selection, and
twinning rate on synchronization and performance.
