5G Energy Internet Network Security Load Forecasting System Based on Quantum Reinforcement Learning and Dynamic Topology Perception
Main Article Content
Abstract
In 5G energy internet environments, load forecasting is challenged by frequent topology reconstruction and diversified security threats, which affect real-time power stability and operational reliability. To overcome the limitations of traditional methods, this paper proposes a collaborative optimization model integrating Quantum Proximal Policy Optimization and dynamic topology perception. The closed-loop system integrates power-load, communication, and security information into a unified state tensor. For dynamic topology modeling, a GraphSAGE-TGAT graph neural network with event-driven updates enables millisecond-level reconstruction and adapts to highly dynamic 5G network structures. At the policy optimization level, a quantum-classical hybrid framework is constructed using multimodal features, compound action spaces, and a multi-objective reward system to improve search efficiency and convergence. Real-time response is further enhanced through offline pre-training, online fine-tuning, and adaptive learning-rate adjustment. For security defense, a risk-scoring module is combined with quantum-resistant encryption switching and network path reconstruction to support dynamic threat response. Experiments on 10 typical nodes show that the system achieves MAPE of 2.2%, MSE of 0.84, average inference delay of 28.5 ms, and MAPE fluctuation controlled within 2.5%–3.2% in robustness tests.
