<p><strong>1. Introduction</strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;">The rapid evolution of wireless communication technologies has continued to reshape global connectivity, enabling high-speed data transfer, intelligent networking, and seamless integration of digital services. From the early generations of wireless communication systems to the current fifth-generation (5G) networks, the demand for higher data rates, ultra-low latency, massive connectivity, and reliable communication has significantly increased. However, the exponential growth of data traffic driven by emerging technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), autonomous systems, smart cities, and immersive multimedia applications has exposed the limitations of existing wireless communication infrastructures. As a result, research attention has shifted toward the development of the sixth-generation (6G) communication network, which is expected to deliver extremely high data rates, improved spectrum efficiency, and intelligent network management (Saad et al., 2020; Zhang et al., 2021). The envisioned 6G communication network aims to support advanced applications such as holographic communications, intelligent transportation systems, remote healthcare, and fully autonomous industrial operations. These applications require data transmission speeds beyond those provided by current 5G systems, along with ultra-reliable and low-latency communication. Consequently, researchers and engineers are exploring innovative techniques that can significantly improve the performance and efficiency of wireless communication systems. Among these techniques, advanced modulation schemes have become an important area of study because modulation plays a crucial role in determining spectral efficiency, signal robustness, and overall system performance (Dang et al., 2020). Advanced modulation techniques are designed to enhance the transmission of information by improving bandwidth utilization and minimizing signal distortion during transmission. In conventional wireless communication systems, modulation schemes such as Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) have been widely used due to their ability to support high data rates and reliable communication. However, with the increasing complexity of modern communication networks, these traditional approaches may not adequately meet the stringent requirements of 6G networks. Therefore, researchers are exploring intelligent and adaptive modulation techniques that can dynamically adjust transmission parameters based on network conditions and channel characteristics (Giordani et al., 2020). The integration of intelligent-based techniques such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) into communication systems has opened new possibilities for optimizing modulation strategies and improving network performance. Intelligent algorithms can analyze large volumes of communication data, predict channel conditions, and automatically select the most suitable modulation scheme for a given transmission scenario. This capability enhances signal quality, reduces transmission errors, and improves overall system efficiency. In addition, intelligent-based advanced modulation techniques enable adaptive resource allocation, improved interference management, and efficient spectrum utilization, which are critical requirements for the successful implementation of 6G communication networks (Saad et al., 2020). Furthermore, intelligent modulation techniques can support the development of self-organizing and autonomous communication networks capable of learning from environmental conditions and adapting to dynamic network demands. Such networks are expected to play significant role in future digital ecosystems where billions of devices will be interconnected through wireless communication infrastructures. The combination of intelligent algorithms with advanced modulation methods therefore provides a promising approach for addressing the technical challenges associated with next-generation wireless communication systems (Zhang et al., 2021). Despite the promising capabilities of intelligent-based advanced modulation techniques, several challenges remain in their practical implementation. These include computational complexity, energy efficiency constraints, hardware limitations, and the need for robust algorithms capable of operating under varying network conditions. Therefore, continuous research is required to develop optimized intelligent modulation techniques that can enhance the performance of 6G communication networks while ensuring reliability, scalability, and cost-effectiveness. Based on these considerations, this study focuses on enhancing 6G communication networks using intelligent-based advanced modulation techniques. The research aims to explore how intelligent algorithms can be integrated with advanced modulation strategies to improve data transmission efficiency, signal reliability, and overall communication performance in next-generation wireless networks.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>1.1 Problem Statement</strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;">The evolution toward sixth-generation (6G) communication networks is driven by the need for ultra-high data rates (in the order of Tbps), ultra-low latency (≤ 1ms), massive connectivity, and highly reliable communication. However, existing modulation techniques used in current wireless systems are increasingly inadequate to meet these stringent performance requirements. Conventional modulation schemes such as Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) and Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) suffer from limitations including high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR), spectral inefficiency, susceptibility to interference, and poor adaptability to dynamic and complex channel conditions. Furthermore, the increasing demand for emerging applications such as smart cities, autonomous systems, virtual reality, and massive Internet of Things (IOT) introduces additional challenges in terms of energy efficiency, bandwidth utilization, and system reliability. These challenges are further compounded by the use of high-frequency bands such as millimeter wave (mmWave) and terahertz (THz) communications, which are highly sensitive to signal attenuation, noise, and environmental variations. Despite recent advancements, current communication systems lack sufficient intelligence to dynamically adapt modulation parameters in real-time based on changing network conditions. This results in suboptimal performance characterized by higher bit error rates (BER), increased latency, inefficient energy consumption (bits/Joule), and reduced spectral efficiency (bits/s/Hz).</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Therefore, there is a critical need to develop intelligent-based advanced modulation techniques that can leverage Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to enable adaptive, efficient, and robust communication in 6G networks. Such techniques should be capable of optimizing modulation schemes in real-time, improving system performance, and overcoming the inherent limitations of conventional methods.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">This study aims to address these challenges by achieving efficient and reliable communication in 6G communication networks through the integration of intelligent-based advanced modulation techniques, thereby improving spectral efficiency, reducing latency, increasing reliability, and optimizing energy utilization in next-generation wireless systems.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>1.2 Aim and Objectives of the Study</strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;">The aim of this research work is to achieve efficient and reliable communication in 6G wireless communications network using intelligent-based advanced modulation technique.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The objectives include the following:</p><ol><li><p style="text-align: justify;">To characterize and establish the causes of poor communication network in 6G communications network</p></li><li><p style="text-align: justify;">To design a conventional SIMULINK model for 6G communications network</p></li><li><p style="text-align: justify;">To develop an advanced modulation technique rule base that would minimize the causes of poor communication network in 6G communications network</p></li><li><p style="text-align: justify;">To train ANN in an advanced modulation technique rule base for effective minimization the causes of poor communication network in 6G communications network</p></li><li><p style="text-align: justify;">To design a SIMULINK model for advanced modulation technique</p></li><li><p style="text-align: justify;">To develop an algorithm that would implement the process</p></li><li><p style="text-align: justify;">To design a SIMULINK model for achieving efficient and reliable communication in 6G communications network using intelligent based advanced modulation technique</p></li><li><p style="text-align: justify;">To validate and justify the percentage improvement in the reduction of the causes of poor communication network in 6G communications network with and without an intelligent based advanced modulation technique.</p></li></ol><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>1.3 Research Hypotheses</strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Null Hypothesis (H₀): Intelligent-based advanced modulation techniques do not significantly enhance the performance of 6G communication networks in terms of spectral efficiency, latency, reliability, and energy efficiency.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Alternative Hypothesis (H₁): Intelligent-based advanced modulation techniques significantly enhance the performance of 6G communication networks by improving spectral efficiency, reducing latency, increasing reliability, and optimizing energy efficiency.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Breaking down into more measurable sub-hypotheses for deeper analysis:</p><ol><li><p style="text-align: justify;">H₀₁: Intelligent-based advanced modulation does not significantly improve spectral efficiency in 6G networks.<br>H₁₁: Intelligent-based advanced modulation significantly improves spectral efficiency in 6G networks.</p></li><li><p style="text-align: justify;">H₀₂: Intelligent-based advanced modulation does not significantly reduce latency in 6G networks.<br>H₁₂: Intelligent-based advanced modulation significantly reduces latency in 6G networks.</p></li><li><p style="text-align: justify;">H₀₃: Intelligent-based advanced modulation does not significantly improve reliability (e.g., bit error rate performance).<br>H₁₃: Intelligent-based advanced modulation significantly improves reliability in 6G networks.</p></li><li><p style="text-align: justify;">H₀₄: Intelligent-based advanced modulation does not significantly enhance energy efficiency.<br>H₁₄ Intelligent-based advanced modulation significantly enhances energy efficiency in 6G networks.</p></li></ol><p style="text-align: justify;">These hypotheses align well with performance metrics in S.I. units such as:</p><ol><li><p style="text-align: justify;">Spectral efficiency (bits/s/Hz)</p></li><li><p style="text-align: justify;">Latency (milliseconds, ms)</p></li><li><p style="text-align: justify;">Bit Error Rate (dimensionless)</p></li><li><p style="text-align: justify;">Energy efficiency (bits/Joule)</p></li></ol><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>2. Literature Review</strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>2.1 Theoretical Background</strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;">The evolution of Wireless Communications has progressed rapidly from earlier generations of mobile networks to the emerging paradigm of 6G communications, which aims to deliver ultra-high data rates, extremely low latency, and massive connectivity. According to recent studies, 6G networks are expected to support data rates in the terahertz (THz) spectrum and enable advanced applications such as holographic communication, smart cities, and autonomous systems (Zhang et al., 2022). However, achieving these ambitious goals requires significant improvements in modulation techniques and network intelligence. Traditional modulation schemes, such as Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), have been widely adopted in 4G and 5G systems due to their spectral efficiency and robustness. Nonetheless, these techniques face limitations in highly dynamic and dense network environments, particularly in terms of interference management, energy efficiency, and scalability (Li & Wang, 2023). As a result, researchers have proposed advanced modulation techniques, including non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), filter bank multicarrier (FBMC), and generalized frequency division multiplexing (GFDM), to enhance performance in next-generation networks (Rahman et al., 2021). In recent years, the integration of Artificial Intelligence into wireless communication systems has gained significant attention. AI-driven approaches, particularly those based on Machine Learning and deep learning, have demonstrated the ability to optimize network parameters, predict channel conditions, and enable adaptive decision-making in real time (Kim et al., 2023). These intelligent techniques can be applied to dynamically select or design modulation schemes based on varying channel characteristics, thereby improving spectral efficiency and reducing error rates. Several studies have explored intelligent-based modulation strategies for beyond-5G and 6G systems. For instance, deep learning-based adaptive modulation has been shown to outperform traditional methods by learning complex channel behaviors and adjusting modulation parameters accordingly (Huang et al., 2022). Similarly, reinforcement learning approaches have been used to optimize modulation and coding schemes in dynamic environments, enabling more efficient resource allocation and improved quality of service (Qin et al., 2023). Despite these advancements, the integration of intelligent algorithms with advanced modulation techniques remains at an early stage, with limited real-world implementation. Moreover, challenges such as computational complexity, training data requirements, and latency associated with AI models present significant barriers to their practical deployment in 6G networks. The need for lightweight, scalable, and energy-efficient intelligent modulation frameworks is increasingly emphasized in the literature (Zhang et al., 2022). Additionally, there is a lack of standardized architectures that seamlessly integrate intelligent decision-making processes with advanced modulation techniques across heterogeneous network environments. In summary, existing literature highlights the potential of combining intelligent-based approaches with advanced modulation techniques to enhance 6G communication networks. However, further research is needed to develop efficient, adaptive, and scalable solutions that can be practically implemented. This study aims to contribute to this growing body of knowledge by addressing the identified gaps and proposing an intelligent-based advanced modulation framework tailored for 6G systems.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>2.2 Research Gap</strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Despite significant advancements in Wireless Communications and the deployment of 6G communications as a successor to 5G networks, several limitations persist in achieving ultra-reliable, high-capacity, and low-latency communication. Existing studies have largely focused on conventional and adaptive modulation schemes; however, these techniques often fail to fully optimize spectral efficiency and energy consumption in highly dynamic network environments (Zhang et al., 2022; Li & Wang, 2023). Furthermore, while intelligent approaches such as Artificial Intelligence and machine learning have been introduced into network optimization, their integration with advanced modulation techniques remains underexplored. Current literature reveals a lack of comprehensive frameworks that combine intelligent-based decision systems with advanced modulation strategies tailored specifically for 6G architectures. In particular, there is insufficient research addressing real-time adaptability of modulation schemes using intelligent algorithms to cope with varying channel conditions, interference, and massive device connectivity (Kim et al., 2023). Additionally, challenges related to computational complexity, scalability, and implementation feasibility in practical 6G scenarios are not adequately addressed. Therefore, the key research gap lies in the development of an intelligent-based advanced modulation technique that can dynamically enhance 6G communication networks by improving spectral efficiency, reducing latency, and ensuring robust performance under diverse operating conditions. Addressing this gap will contribute to more efficient and adaptive next-generation wireless systems.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>3.
