Introduction

In the past few years, various advanced and emerging technologies such as Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, Digital Twin, and others have been utilized in IoT and Smart City Applications, including Smart Parking, Smart Education, Smart Healthcare, Smart Vehicles based on human requirements and promises to transform cities into intelligent, interconnected ecosystems. These applications depend on IoT and Sensor devices such as humidity, current, temperature, etc., and IoT devices connect to the network using gateways that act as processing Base Stations. These stations and sensors, as mentioned above, transfer the information data to the cloud, analyze it, and utilize it to improve and optimize smart applications. According to new advancements in the communication field, 5G is transferred to 6G technology with advanced IoT Sensors in futuristic worlds. The motivation behind this book stems from acknowledging the transformative potential inherent in emerging technologies, particularly 6G, to revolutionize metropolitan environments and pave the way for the expansion of truly Smart Cities. However, security and privacy are the major issues in 6G Infrastructure for Futuristic Smart Cities, and realizing this vision requires more than just technological innovation. An edited collection of original research in Secure 6G Infrastructure for Futuristic Smart Cities and IoT security Intelligence paradigms is needed. In this book, we embark on a journey to explore the profound impact of emerging technology-enabled secure 6G infrastructure on the creation of futuristic smart Cities.

Objective

The primary objective of this book, "Building Tomorrow's Smart Cities With 6G Infrastructure Technology," is to comprehensively explore how cutting-edge technologies, particularly 6G, can shape the future of smart cities. It also provides relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research findings. It will be written for professionals who want to improve their understanding of the strategic role of Building Tomorrow's Smart Cities With 6G Infrastructure Technology. In this book, we categorized many chapters based on the title. We provide qualitative and theoretical knowledge about Secure 6G Infrastructure for Futuristic Smart City Applications with emerging technologies such as Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, Digital Twin, and Federated Learning (FL).

Target Audience

This book's target audience will be industry professionals, researchers, and bachelor and master students working in secure 6G infrastructure for a Futuristic Smart City, with the emergence of advanced new technologies such as Digital Twins, Blockchain, Federated Learning (FL), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Extended versions of hybrid cryptographic algorithms. This book appeals to diverse industry persons and researchers involved in planning, designing, implementing, and managing futuristic smart city initiatives beyond 6G. Overall, this book acts as an encyclopedic resource for anyone (Researchers, Students, Industry Persons) seeking to understand and contribute to the evolution of futuristic smart cities powered by secure 6G infrastructure.
