Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a neural network-assisted modulation format recognition method, system and device based on Fourier series features. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid growth of global IP traffic and the increasing demand for diversified data services such as the Internet of Things, big data, cloud computing and streaming media, communication networks urgently need to adaptively adjust bandwidth, modulation format and transmission rate according to the real-time status of communication links and the dynamic needs of user traffic, so as to improve spectrum utilization while meeting users' expectations for service quality at a lower cost. In this context, signal modulation format recognition technology has gradually become a key research direction. The receiver of modern communication systems usually needs to obtain the modulation format of the signal as prior information to ensure that the digital signal processing algorithm can correctly demodulate and restore the transmission sequence. However, due to the dynamic characteristics of communication networks and the requirements for efficient processing, the receiver algorithm must have low complexity characteristics in design. In addition, with the continuous optimization of channel coding and error correction algorithms, the range of communicable signal-to-noise ratios under different modulation formats has further increased, making the modulation format recognition method must be robust to a larger signal-to-noise ratio range. Therefore, a low-complexity modulation format recognition method with high accuracy and a large signal-to-noise ratio range is indispensable.

[0003] At present, researchers have proposed a variety of implementation schemes to meet the needs of modulation format recognition. Non-data-assisted methods identify modulation formats by extracting statistical features such as the cumulative amplitude distribution of the signal, signal power characteristics, and peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). However, with the continuous optimization of channel coding and error correction technology, the requirements of communication systems for signal-to-noise ratio have gradually decreased, making it difficult for non-data-assisted schemes to meet the actual application needs in low signal-to-noise ratio environments. In addition, machine learning-based schemes such as clustering and convolutional neural networks can improve the accuracy of modulation format recognition to a certain extent, but these schemes usually use the original data or constellation diagram of the signal as input, process a large amount of data, and have high computational complexity, making it difficult to adapt to the requirements of real-time communication scenarios. Another study proposed a shaping signal recognition scheme based on frequency offset loading technology. This method assists recognition by introducing pilot signals, but the loading of pilot signals not only increases the complexity of system implementation, but also occupies a certain amount of spectrum resources, which makes its deployment in actual communication systems have certain limitations.

[0004] In general, there is a contradiction between recognition performance and system complexity in the current modulation format recognition schemes. The non-data-assisted scheme has insufficient performance in a low signal-to-noise ratio environment, the recognition method based on machine learning has a high computational complexity, and the pilot loading technology scheme increases the difficulty of system implementation and spectrum utilization. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a modulation format recognition scheme that can balance high performance and low complexity in a low signal-to-noise ratio environment to meet the needs of actual communication systems. To solve the above problems, we propose a neural network-assisted modulation format recognition method, system and device based on Fourier series features. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a method, system and device for neural network-assisted modulation format recognition based on Fourier series features to solve the problems raised in the background technology.

[0006] The above technical objectives of the present invention are achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] A neural network-assisted modulation format recognition method based on Fourier series features comprises the following steps:

[0008] S1. Perform modulation format-insensitive digital signal processing on historical signals of various modulation formats and signal-to-noise ratios to generate a historical signal set and a historical label set for modulation format identification;

[0009] S2. Perform histogram statistics on the amplitude of the historical signal set to obtain a historical amplitude distribution set;

[0010] S3, performing Fourier series decomposition on the historical amplitude distribution set, and using the coefficients of each order obtained by the decomposition as the historical amplitude distribution feature set;

[0011] S4, training a neural network based on the historical amplitude feature set and the historical label set;

[0012] S5, performing modulation format-insensitive digital signal processing on the received signal to generate an actual signal to be identified;

[0013] S6. Performing histogram statistics on the amplitude of the actual signal to be identified to obtain signal amplitude distribution;

[0014] S7, performing Fourier series decomposition on the signal amplitude distribution, and using each order coefficient obtained by the decomposition as an amplitude distribution feature;

[0015] S8. Input the amplitude distribution characteristics into the trained neural network to obtain the corresponding modulation format label to realize modulation format recognition.

[0016] Optionally, the amplitude of the historical signal set is histogrammed to obtain a historical amplitude distribution set, which specifically includes:

[0017] For the historical signal set S = {s1(t),s2(t),…,s N (t)}, first for each signal s i (t) Extract the amplitude point by point to obtain the amplitude sequence A i ={|s i (t)||t=1,2,…,T i}, where T i is the number of sampling points of the signal;

[0018] Then, the statistical interval [a min ,a max ], and divide the amplitude range into B equal-width intervals [a k ,a k+1 ), the frequency of occurrence of the statistical amplitude in each interval h i,k , the histogram reflects the distribution trend of the signal amplitude and normalizes it to the probability distribution p i,k :

[0019]

[0020] Finally, the amplitude distribution P of each signal is obtained i ={p i,1 ,p i,2 ,…,p i,B}, used to describe the statistical characteristics of the signal, and the amplitude distribution of all signals is aggregated into the historical amplitude distribution set P set = {P1,P2,…,P N}, avoiding the impact of phase damage on the modulation format recognition performance and providing an input basis for subsequent feature extraction.

[0021] Optionally, the historical amplitude distribution set is decomposed using Fourier series, and the coefficients of each order obtained by the decomposition are used as the historical amplitude distribution feature set, specifically including:

[0022] For the historical amplitude distribution set P set = {P1,P2,…,P N Each amplitude distribution P in i ={p i,1 ,p i,2 ,…,p i,B}, perform Fourier series decomposition one by one. First, calculate the DC component a i,0 , reflecting the overall mean of the amplitude distribution:

[0023]

[0024] Next, calculate the nth order cosine component a i,n and the sine component bi,n , used to capture the periodic nature of the amplitude distribution:

[0025]

[0026] in, represents discrete frequency points, and M is the order of Fourier series truncation. Through these components, we can effectively capture the subtle fluctuations in the signal distribution, and accurately extract the high-dimensional information of the signal amplitude distribution under low signal-to-noise ratio;

[0027] Finally, the Fourier coefficients of each signal are combined into a feature set F i ={a i,0 ,a i,1 ,…,a i,M ,b i,1 ,…,b i,M}, the Fourier feature set of all signals is combined into the historical amplitude distribution feature set F set ={F1,F2,…,F N}, providing feature input for subsequent model training.

[0028] Optionally, a neural network is trained based on the historical amplitude feature set and the historical label set, specifically including:

[0029] Based on the historical amplitude feature set F set ={F1,F2,…,F N} and the corresponding historical label set Y set ={y1,y2,…,y N} as input, train the neural network model, establish the mapping relationship between Fourier features and modulation format labels, and input F i Describes the historical signal amplitude distribution characteristics of the signal, label y i Indicates the modulation format type of the signal;

[0030] First, design the neural network structure, including the input layer, several hidden layers and the output layer. The input layer receives the Fourier feature F i , whose dimension is determined by the order M of the Fourier series, and its magnitude is much smaller than the number of signals, so the scale of the model is very small. The hidden layer extracts the complex relationship between features through nonlinear activation functions, and the output layer generates prediction results according to the number of modulation format categories c;

[0031] During the training phase, the predicted value is calculated using the cross entropy loss function L(Θ) and the true label y i,c The error:

[0032]

[0033] in, is the probability of the c-th modulation format output by the network, is the unique hot encoding representation of the label, and the network weights and biases are iteratively updated through the back propagation algorithm to optimize the network parameters Θ;

[0034] After training, the network can accurately map Fourier features to corresponding modulation format categories, achieving high-precision and low-complexity classification of features over a large signal-to-noise ratio range.

[0035] Optionally, a histogram is performed on the amplitude of the actual signal to be identified to obtain a signal amplitude distribution, specifically including:

[0036] For the actual signal to be identified s real (t), first extract and normalize its amplitude to form the amplitude sequence A real ={|s real (t)||t=1,2,…,T real}, where T real is the number of sampling points of the signal. Amplitude extraction can effectively avoid the influence of phase damage on the modulation format recognition performance.

[0037] Then, the interval boundaries are set according to the amplitude range of the signal [a real,min ,a real,max ] and the number of intervals B real , the interval division usually needs to consider the dynamic range and sampling resolution of the signal to ensure the accuracy of statistics. The amplitude range is divided into B real equal width intervals, and count the frequency of occurrence of the amplitude in each interval h real,k , the formula is:

[0038] h real,k = count(A real ∈[a k ,a k+1 ))

[0039] To convert the frequency distribution to a probability distribution, the frequencies are normalized:

[0040]

[0041] Finally, the amplitude distribution of the signal is obtained It provides the input basis for the subsequent Fourier decomposition step.

[0042] Optionally, Fourier series decomposition is performed on the signal amplitude distribution, and each order coefficient obtained by the decomposition is used as an amplitude distribution feature, specifically including:

[0043] Amplitude distribution of actual signal Perform Fourier series decomposition to extract DC components and high-order components. The DC component areal,0 The calculation is as follows:

[0044]

[0045] The higher-order components include the cosine component a real,n and the sine component b real,n , respectively represent the characteristics of the amplitude distribution in the high-frequency part:

[0046]

[0047] in, The calculation is usually truncated to a specific order M real , to balance the computational complexity and the effectiveness of feature extraction;

[0048] Finally, the calculated coefficients of each order are combined into the amplitude distribution characteristics These features can effectively capture subtle fluctuations in signal distribution and accurately extract high-dimensional information of signal amplitude distribution even under low signal-to-noise ratio.

[0049] Optionally, the amplitude distribution feature is input into the trained neural network to obtain a corresponding modulation format label to implement modulation format recognition, specifically including:

[0050] The amplitude distribution feature F of the actual signal to be identified real Input the trained neural network model, which has learned the mapping relationship between amplitude distribution characteristics and modulation format categories from historical data and has the ability to identify different modulation formats. Since the amplitude distribution characteristics obtained by Fourier series decomposition have a low dimension, the neural network scale is small and the actual processing complexity is very low.

[0051] Input feature F real First, the input layer is processed and mapped to the hidden layer. The hidden layer gradually extracts the key patterns in the features through nonlinear activation functions (such as ReLU, tanh, etc.) and converts them into information related to the classification task. After multi-layer processing, the network output layer generates the predicted probability of each modulation format category. The formula is as follows:

[0052]

[0053] Among them, z real It is the feature representation of the final output of the hidden layer;

[0054] The multi-layer structure of the network is realized through the following recursive relationship:

[0055] h (l) =φ(W (l) ·h (l-1)+b (l) )

[0056] Among them, h (l-1) is the output of the l-1th layer, h (l) is the output of the lth layer; φ is the activation function, which is used to introduce nonlinear characteristics; W (l) and b (l) are the weight matrix and bias vector of the lth layer respectively. The output layer uses the softmax function to convert the output of the network into a probability distribution and predict the probability of each modulation format;

[0057] According to the category label y corresponding to the maximum probability real , and ultimately achieves high-precision and low-complexity modulation format recognition of features under a large signal-to-noise ratio range. This process can run efficiently in real-time communication systems, adapt to dynamic signal environments, and provide guarantees for accurate recognition of modulation formats.

[0059] Signal receiving module;

[0060] Modulation format insensitive digital signal module;

[0061] Modulation format identification module;

[0062] Modulation format related digital signal processing module;

[0063] Signal output module.

[0064] An electronic device includes a memory and a processor, wherein the memory is used to store a computer program, and the processor runs the computer program to enable the electronic device to execute the above-mentioned neural network-assisted modulation format recognition method based on Fourier series features.

[0065] Optionally, the memory is a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, and the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium stores a computer program, and when the computer program is executed by the processor, the above-mentioned neural network-assisted modulation format recognition method based on Fourier series features is implemented.

[0066] In summary, the present invention mainly has the following beneficial effects:

[0067] 1.
