6G for Tactile Internet

This chapter explains the role of 6G as a new key enabler for the Tactile Internet (TI) and its applications. To meet the needs of services and applications planned for post 5G and 6G networks, explorations are progressing towards the integration of architectures with the aim of supporting the variety of new computation‐heavy and latency‐sensitive applications in the context of the TI. Human‐oriented performance metrics: instead of concentrating on increasing traditional performance metrics, such as throughput, network capacity and convergence rate, the performance of 6G and artificial intelligence should be jointly measured and considered by taking into consideration characteristics and potential responses of users. 6G will ensure energy self‐sustainability to massive Internet of Everything devices. With 6G, decisions for providing services will be intelligently presented with the use of a number of technology and data enablers: smart transportation, behavioral analysis stored in big data and health monitoring.
