摘要：The recent emergence of sixth-generation (6G) enabled wireless communication technology has resulted in the rapid proliferation of a wide range of real-time applications. These applications are highly data-computation intensive and generate huge data traffic. Cybertwin-driven edge computing emerges as a promising solution to satisfy massive user demand, but it also introduces new challenges. One of the most difficult challenges in edge networks is efficiently offloading tasks while managing computation, communication, and cache resources. Traditional statistical optimization methods are incapable of addressing the offloading problem in a dynamic edge computing environment. In this work, we propose a joint resource allocation and computation offloading scheme by integrating deep reinforcement learning in Cybertwin enabled 6G wireless networks. The proposed system uses the potential of the MATD3 algorithm to provide QoS to end-users by minimizing the overall latency and energy consumption with better management of cache resources. As these edge resources are deployed in inaccessible locations, therefore, we employ secure authentication mechanism for Cybertwins. The proposed system is implemented in a simulated environment, and the results are calculated for different performance metrics with previous benchmark methodologies such as RRA, GRA, and MADDPG. The comparative analysis reveals that the proposed MATD3 reduces end-to-end latency and energy consumption by 13.8% and 12.5% respectively over MADDPG with a 4% increase in successful task completion.
