Abstract

This paper explores the integration of Quantum Communication Networks (QCNs), semantic communication, and covert communication within the context of 6G and future wireless networks. Introducing a new Quantum Semantic Communications (QSC) framework that capitalizes on advancements in quantum machine learning and semantic representations, this framework dramatically enhances resource efficiency in QCN s. It does so by embedding only relevant classical data into compact, high-dimensional quantum states for transmission, achieving a potential resource reduction of 50-75% while boosting quantum semantic fidelity. The paper further examines Artificial Intelligence's (AI) transformative role in upgrading tra-ditional communication paradigms into more efficient semantic communication systems, utilizing deep learning and end-to-end methodologies to ensure precise conveyance and interpretation of meanings in transmitted information. Additionally, it explores incorporating covert communication strategies within systems supported by a Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (STAR-RIS) and Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA), emphasizing the enhanced security and stealth necessary for modern networks. By merging these sophisticated communication strategies, the paper anticipates a new era of telecommunications that significantly surpasses existing security, efficiency, and semantic accuracy capabilities, marking a progressive step towards future networks optimized for secure, efficient, and meaning-focused communication in the quantum and AI era.
