In signal communication based on a non-cooperative communication system, the receiver is an unlicensed third-party communication terminal, and the modulation parameters of the transmitter signal cannot be predicted in advance. After the RF signal passes through the RF band-pass filter, low noise amplifier, and image rejection filter, the intermediate frequency signal is obtained by down-conversion, and then the IQ signal is obtained in the baseband by using the intermediate frequency band-pass filter and down-conversion. In this process, noise and signal frequency offset are inevitably introduced. As the basis of subsequent analysis and interpretation, modulation recognition has important research value in this environment. The introduction of deep learning also brings new feature mining tools. Based on this, this paper proposes a signal modulation recognition method based on multi-feature fusion and constructs a deep learning network with a double-branch structure to extract the features of IQ signal and multi-channel constellation, respectively. It is found that through the complementary characteristics of different forms of signals, a more complete signal feature representation can be constructed. At the same time, it can better alleviate the influence of noise and frequency offset on recognition performance, and effectively improve the classification accuracy of modulation recognition.
Radar data mining is the key module for signal analysis, where patterns hidden inside of signals are gradually available in the learning process and its superiority is significant for enhancing the security of the radar emitter classification (REC) system. Owing to the disadvantage that radio frequency fingerprinting (RFF) caused by the imperfection of emitter’s hardware is difficult to forge, current deep-learning REC methods based on deep-learning techniques, e.g., convolutional neural network (CNN) and long short term memory (LSTM) are difficult to capture the stable RFF features. In this paper, an online and non-cooperative multi-modal generic representation auxiliary learning REC model, namely muti-modal generic representation auxiliary learning networks (MGRALN), is put forward. Multi-modal means that multi-domain transformations are unified to a generic representation. After this, the representation is employed to facilitate mining the implicit information inside of the signals and to perform the better model robustness, which is achieved by using the available generic genenation to guide the network training and learning. Online means the learning process of REC is only once and the REC is end-to-end. Non-cooperative denotes no demodulation techniques are used before the REC task. Experimental results on the measured civil aviation radar data demonstrate that the proposed method enables one to achieve superior performance.
