A Theoretical Framework for Value Co-creation Analysis of Ecological Interaction between 6G and Its Enabling Technologies

As demand for communication increases in terms of rate, reliability and security, 6G networks will provide more extreme communication experiences and richer communication services. It is therefore crucial that 6G enabling technologies are developed in order to meet the performance requirements of 6G networks. This study firstly analyses the core elements and development of the 6G ecosystem, and secondly reviews the ecological interactions of 6G and its enabling technologies. Notably, this study, based on the resource orchestration theory, has explored the three-phase evolution and value co-creation of the ecological interactions of 6G and its enabling technologies and provides a summary of the challenges for future development. The study is expected to provide theoretical support for the future system planning and evolutionary development of 6G ecology and its enabling technology ecology.
