摘要

Digital Twin (DT) technology has emerged as a key enabler for optimizing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) operations through intelligent decision-making, predictive analytics, and cost-efficient system management. By maintaining real-time synchronization between physical and virtual entities, DTs enable continuous optimization of cyber-physical systems (CPSs) and early detection of potential anomalies. However, existing UAV-DT frameworks often lack comprehensive evaluation methodologies and robust integration mechanisms, limiting their applicability in dynamic flight environments. This paper presents a novel Intelligent Digital Twin Framework for UAVs (IDTF-UAV) designed to enhance autonomy, safety, and decision reliability. The proposed framework integrates an AI-driven model within a four-dimensional architecture, enabling bidirectional data flow and adaptive control between the virtual and physical UAV. IDTF-UAV demonstrates superior performance in real-time flight prediction and control. Simulation results confirm a MAPE of 2.65 %, validating the model’s high accuracy and efficiency. The results highlight its potential as a scalable solution for secure, adaptive, and data-driven UAV management.
