Toward Efficient 6G IoT Networks: A Perspective on Resource Optimization Strategies, Challenges, and Future Directions

Abstract

The next generation (6G) wireless communication technology has super advantages in high transmission rates scenarios. Internet of Things (IoT) has been applied in recent years due to its wide connection. However, effective resource optimization methods must be analyzed to meet the high requirements of key performance indicators in 6G wireless IoT networks. This paper discusses a general investigation of the resource optimization strategies in the 6G IoT system. The study aims to find the main solutions to optimize 6G IoT network performance. First, an overall summary of current research is preferred resource optimization in latency, reliability, Energy Efficiency (EE), Spectrum Efficiency (SE), bandwidth utilization efficiency, rate, and power efficiency. Second, we propose the multi-indicator tradeoff strategies associated with the latest resource optimization approaches and investigate optimal strategies. Furthermore, we show the limitations of the current resource optimization methods and discuss the future works of resource optimization for IoT devices in 6G communication. Our survey aims to help researchers optimize 6G IoT network performance using advanced techniques.
