AI-Enabled Next-Generation Communication Networks: Intelligent Agent and AI Router

Nowadays, network users' demands for low latency services and individual data security grow rapidly. In this article, we conceive a new communication network architecture based on the concept of intelligent agents. The proposed intelligent agent serves as a virtual secretary of the corresponding user to request desired service from Internet companies or neighboring agents, which can reduce Internet surfing latency and prevent privacy leakage. Moreover, to improve the forwarding efficiency of data packages, a new mixed routing structure and the AI router are also introduced, to support various on-demand services with low latency. Overall, the proposed communication network architecture is expected to be more efficient than the existing one, and inspire readers to deliberate the revolution of future communications networks.
