Digital Twin for Pre-Deployment Validation of AI-Driven Safety-Critical Industrial Edge Control Loops
The framework integrates a Process DT, Network DT, and an AI Decision Module to model industrial processes and wireless communications. This unified architecture was validated using a real-world pilot line to compare synthetic predictions with actual measurements for metrics like Round Trip Time (RTT) and Signal Strength (RSRP). The results confirmed the DT's accuracy in predicting system behavior, proving its utility for pre-deployment validation of AI control loops.
