The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $900,000 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program to the Regents of the University of Minnesota to advance the mathematical foundations for developing digital twins of next-generation mobile wireless networks. The project aims to develop novel mathematical theories, data-driven AI-guided models, and algorithms to enable realistic digital twinning of 5G and 6G wireless networks. Key technical focus areas include placing the ray tracing problem within the framework of first-order Hamilton-Jacobi equations, developing algorithms for learning these equations from data, and integrating the theoretical and algorithmic advances into a wireless network digital twin platform. The research will also support undergraduate and graduate students from underrepresented groups, as well as K-12 outreach programs. The award has an initial project period from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2027.
