Potential technologies and applications based on deep learning in the 6G networks

Abstract

The fifth generation (5G) networks provide high speed, low latency, and reliable communication services, and have been making great differences in our daily life. However, it might be difficult to meet the growing demands of Internet of Things (IoT) devices based on the existing technologies in the future, so the concept of sixth generation (6G) networks were raised to improve the existing 5G networks and promote the development of intelligent applications furthermore. Therefore, we introduce the characteristics, challenges, and potential technologies of 6G networks, and find that deep learning is potential to overcome these challenges with the help of big data and cloud computing. In addition, Deep learning approaches and potential applications in 6G networks are also discussed. We summarize the important viewpoints and studies, and provide some new ideas for developing 6G networks.
