We study massive charged scalar field perturbations in four- and five- dimensional charged anti-de Sitter soliton spacetimes. Appropriate boundary conditions are established via a local analysis of the perturbation equations. The normal mode spectra are then calculated numerically using the Horowitz-Hubeny method and a collocation method. We reveal scaling laws and asymptotic behaviors governing the normal mode spectra. The reality of the normal mode frequencies indicates the dynamic stability of the soliton, which in turn provides support for the positive energy conjecture in asymptotically locally anti-de Sitter spacetime.
