Abstract
Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) ensures reliable traffic delivery in industrial automation, multimedia, and automotive systems. While effective in wired networks, wireless TSN (WTSN) faces challenges like delays and interference, complicating traffic scheduling. This paper presents a data-driven approach to improve WTSN management by addressing the residual service time (RST) problem, which increases link latency. Tested in a Wi-Fi TSN-based environment, the proposed WTSN digital twin framework preserves TSN traffic guarantees while significantly reducing RST and hence link latency.
