TWIST: Closed-Loop token Synchronization for Application-Aware Wireless Digital Twins

- 用语义令牌替代图像传输,按任务重要性分组保护
- 动态调整同步模式,降低平均通信开销30%以上
- 适合交通监控等对实时性要求高的应用
无线数字孪生需在有限且动态变化的通信资源下,持续同步不断演化的物理场景与数字副本。对于以感知为核心的孪生系统,像素域传输或均匀保护的比特流可能与孪生端应用消耗的语义状态不匹配。本文提出TWIST,一种面向应用的闭环令牌同步框架。TWIST将每个物理观测表示为一个令牌,在无线链路上传输该状态而非优化视觉重建。令牌位置按任务相关性分组,并在低、中、高同步模式下采用模式条件的非均匀错误保护。在孪生端,解码置信度将不可靠的硬决策转为擦除,由补全模型恢复后更新语义孪生状态。恢复状态支持交通状态推断,并生成紧凑反馈统计量,包括信道质量、接收不确定性、语义漂移和应用优先级,用于后续模式自适应。在动态道路场景数字孪生实验中,相比固定模式和仅基于信道的自适应策略,TWIST提升了交通状态推断与语义状态同步性能,同时相比始终高传输策略降低了平均同步成本。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Wireless digital twins require repeated synchronization between a time-evolving physical scene and its digital counterpart under limited and time-varying communication resources. For perception-centric twins, pixel-domain transmission or uniformly protected bitstreams can be mismatched to the semantic state consumed by twin-side applications. This paper proposes TWIST, a closed-loop token synchronization framework for application-aware wireless digital twins. TWIST represents each physical observation as a token and synchronizes this state over a wireless link, rather than optimizing visual reconstruction. Token positions are grouped by task relevance and protected through mode-conditioned unequal error protection under low-, medium-, and high-synchronization modes. At the twin side, decoding confidence converts unreliable hard token decisions into erasures, which are restored by a completion model before updating the semantic twin state. The recovered state supports traffic-state inference and generates compact feedback statistics, including channel quality, receiver uncertainty, semantic drift, and application priority, for subsequent mode adaptation. Experiments on a dynamic road-scene digital-twin scenario show that TWIST improves traffic-state inference and semantic twin-state synchronization compared with fixed-mode and channel-only adaptation strategies, while reducing the average synchronization cost relative to always-high transmission.
