| contents | Air-ground integrated networks can relieve communication pressure on ground transportation networks and provide 6G-enabled vehicular Metaverses services offloading in remote areas with sparse RoadSide Units (RSUs) coverage and downtown areas where users have a high demand for vehicular services. Vehicle Twins (VTs) are the digital twins of physical vehicles to enable more immersive and realistic vehicular services, which can be offloaded and updated on RSU, to manage and provide vehicular Metaverses services to passengers and drivers. The high mobility of vehicles and the limited coverage of RSU signals necessitate VT migration to ensure service continuity when vehicles leave the signal coverage of RSUs. However, uneven VT task migration might overload some RSUs, which might result in increased service latency, and thus impactive immersive experiences for users. In this paper, we propose a dynamic Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)-assisted VT migration framework in air-ground integrated networks, where UAVs act as aerial edge servers to assist ground RSUs during VT task offloading. In this framework, we propose a diffusion-based Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithm, which can efficiently make immersive VT migration decisions in UAV-assisted vehicular networks. To balance the workload of RSUs and improve VT migration quality, we design a novel dynamic path planning algorithm based on a heuristic search strategy for UAVs. Simulation results show that the diffusion-based RL algorithm with UAV-assisted performs better than other baseline schemes. |
