Progressive goal-oriented (GO) communication is a promising technology to tackle the above challenges. This paper takes a two-step approach to design the first progressive codec of GO communications tailored for RL control tasks. The first step is to design a variable-rate coding scheme that extends the boundaries of rate regimes. This step is achieved by empowering the hierarchical variational autoencoder (HVAE) framework with novel algorithms such as mutual information based soft state abstraction (MISA). The second step is to transform variable-rate encoding into progressive encoding. This is achieved by applying residual-based encoding techniques upon latent representations learned by deep neural networks. Experiments on the Cartpole Swingup task demonstrate that the proposed progressive codec can facilitate smooth transitions from the ultra-low rate regime to regular rate regime, while achieving the state-of-the-art performance in terms of rate-distortion-effectiveness tradeoff.","PeriodicalId":73294,"journal":{"name":"IEEE journal on selected areas in communications : a publication of the IEEE Communications Society","volume":"43 9","pages":"3056-3071"},"PeriodicalIF":17.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144260013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dynamic security assessment (DSA) has been adopted to hedge against such risks by estimating the stability of large-scale smart grids. Existing DSA approaches often involve complex high dimensional models which incur high communication and computational costs, hindering their practical adoption. In this paper, we address these limitations with the <underline>Q</u>uantum <underline>F</u>ederated <underline>E</u>nsembled <underline>V</u>ariational <underline>A</u>daptive <underline>L</u>earning (QFEVAL) approach for smart grid DSA. QFEVAL is designed to combine quantum machine learning and federated learning to handle the differential-algebraic equations that describe smart grid stability, providing an efficient way to deal with high-dimensional data and uncertainties. QFEVAL enables the training of the hybrid quantum-classical neural networks on distributed DSA datasets located at different nodes in smart grids, without requiring large numbers of parameters to be transmitted. QFEVAL accurately predicts the stability of the smart grid under various conditions, enabling the implementation of preventive stability control measures. Through extensive experiments, we demonstrate that QFEVAL achieves comparable performance to 9 state-of-the-art DSA approaches with more than 2 orders of magnitude fewer model parameter transmissions. QFEVAL paves the way for reliable, secure, and continuous electricity supply, offering a robust solution to the challenges of DSA in smart grids.","PeriodicalId":73294,"journal":{"name":"IEEE journal on selected areas in communications : a publication of the IEEE Communications Society","volume":"43 9","pages":"3200-3213"},"PeriodicalIF":17.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144260093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
