【Abstract】Wireless resources, such as spectrum, computation, infrastructures and so on, are critical in 6G and beyond. Dynamic Resource Sharing (DRS), which improves the resource utilization compared to the static and fixed resource allocation, thus needs to be further exploited. Blockchain and AI are two promising techniques for DRS in 6G and beyond. In this article, a blockchain and AI-empow-ered DRS architecture is proposed, where block-chain is used to achieve the functionalities in DRS with improved distribution, security and automation, and AI is implemented to improve the performance of pattern recognition and decision-making in DRS. Finally, a case study where dynamic spectrum sharing is implemented within the proposed architecture, and deep reinforcement learning is used and shown to optimize the profit ratio of the users.
