Abstract
As networks continue to evolve beyond 5 G, the Internet of Things (IoT) is expected to satisfy high demands for ultra-low latency, robust security, and resiliency in dynamic environments. Emerging technologies - particularly quantum technology - are a promising solution to address these challenges. This paper proposes a modular, hybrid quantum-classical architecture that seamlessly integrates quantum technologies such as secure quantum key sharing, quantum synchronization and quantum computing - into the existing IoT infrastructure. This approach supports compatibility with existing infrastructures while enabling next-generation capabilities. We explore the architectural principles of the IoT, leverage current standardization efforts, and illustrate practical use cases, including quantumassisted time synchronization and secure communication. With a focus on scalability and interoperability, the proposed framework provides a path towards quantum-enabled IoT networks. Such a hybrid quantum-classical regime forms the basis for a resilient quantum IoT infrastructure that is aligned with future networks requirements.
