[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] Combine the following Figure 1-Figure 4 The present invention describes a wireless signal modulation identification method, device and wireless signal blind demodulation system.

[0027] Figure 1 It is one of the flow charts of the modulation identification method of wireless signal provided by the present invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following: Step 110: extract a target feature from the wireless signal, where the target feature is at least one of a time domain feature, a frequency domain feature, and a time-frequency domain feature.

[0028] In this step, the time domain features include changes in amplitude and phase, such as high-order cumulants and statistical features of instantaneous amplitude.

[0029] In some embodiments, the time domain characteristics specifically include the flatness of the wireless signal envelope, which is used to preliminarily screen the modulation mode; the flatness of the envelope of the input signal IQ data Calculated by the following formula: ; in, is the modulus value of IQ data, evlpR is the characteristic parameter of the flatness of the signal envelope, which is the mean of the square of the envelope divided by the square of the upper envelope mean. The minimum value of evlpR is 1. The smaller the value of R, the flatter the signal envelope distribution is, and the more likely it is a non-amplitude modulated signal. The larger the value of evlpR, the steeper the signal envelope distribution is, and the more likely it is an amplitude modulated signal. is the mean of the square of the envelope, is the square of the envelope mean.

[0030] In this embodiment, the frequency domain features include the number of peaks and the degree of flatness of different power spectra of the signal, which are used to further narrow the range of possible modulation modes; Specifically, the corresponding frequency domain features are calculated through the following steps: After the signal is raised to the power of p = 1, 2, 4, and 8, the linear power spectrum is obtained using FFT and then normalized based on the maximum value. The number of peaks in the normalized power spectrum is calculated, which correspond to the parameters PeakNum(1), PeakNum(2), PeakNum(3), and PeakNum(4), respectively.

[0031] In this embodiment, the time-frequency domain features include the normalized smoothness of the instantaneous frequency, which is used to determine the composite modulation signal and the complex modulation mode.

[0032] Specifically, the corresponding time-frequency domain features are calculated through the following steps: Calculate the instantaneous frequency corresponding to the IQ data ; Originally, the process of solving the instantaneous frequency involved two differential (subtracting the previous from the latter) operations, which can be simplified to one operation when applied to engineering: ; in, ;but , and there are: ; Above That is the instantaneous frequency. Normalize it by dividing it by 0.5 times the sampling rate and then taking the modulus value, we get: ; Finally, Substituting it into the previous calculation method of the smoothness, we can get the instantaneous frequency smoothness, which is recorded as .

[0033] In this embodiment, before extracting the target features, the wireless signal may be subjected to preprocessing operations including but not limited to: signal denoising (such as wavelet threshold denoising), normalization processing, and outlier removal to improve the quality of the wireless signal.

[0034] Step 120: Acquire the signal type of the wireless signal based on the target feature, and determine at least one candidate modulation mode according to the signal type.

[0035] In this step, the signal type may be determined according to one or more types of target features extracted from the wireless signal.

[0036] In this embodiment, if it is determined based on the above-mentioned target characteristics that the signal type may include one, then the corresponding modulation method can be directly selected for demodulation. However, if the signal type may include two or more, it is necessary to combine multiple candidate modulation methods to demodulate the wireless signals one by one, so as to select a modulation method with the best demodulation effect as the target modulation method.

[0037] In this embodiment, mapping to possible modulation modes according to signal type includes: (1) FSK signal, the corresponding possible modulation modes include: 2-FSK, 4-FSK, MSK (minimum shift keying), GMSK (Gaussian minimum shift keying); (2) PSK signal, corresponding possible modulation modes include: BPSK, QPSK, 8PSK, π / 4-QPSK, π / 4-DQPSK, 4OQPSK, 16APSK; (3) QAM signal, corresponding possible modulation methods include: 16QAM, 32QAM, and 64QAM.

[0038] Step 130: For each candidate modulation mode, blindly modulate the wireless signal using the candidate modulation mode and calculate the error vector magnitude (EVM) to obtain multiple EVM values.

[0039] In this step, blind demodulation is attempted one by one for the selected candidate modulation modes, and the corresponding EVM value is calculated.

[0040] In this embodiment, after the type of the input wireless signal is identified, a plurality of candidate modulation modes can be obtained; the demodulation parameters are set according to the input signal type, including the symbol rate, sampling rate and initial frequency deviation, etc. If the symbol rate and frequency deviation are unknown, it is necessary to perform symbol rate estimation and frequency deviation estimation according to the modulation mode.

[0041] In this embodiment, the signal demodulation step includes: (1) Frequency offset compensation: The frequency offset of the signal is preliminarily estimated through frequency domain analysis method, and the signal frequency domain data is compensated.

[0042] (2) Symbol synchronization: Utilizing the symbol characteristics of a specific modulation method, the symbol rate is obtained through symbol rate estimation, and the optimal synchronization point is obtained through blind synchronization and EVM calculation.

[0043] (3) Constellation recovery: Based on the modulation method, the demodulation result is mapped to a standard constellation shape, such as the grid pattern of QAM or the phase circle of PSK.

[0044] (4) Error calculation: Match the constellation diagram of the received signal with the ideal constellation diagram and calculate the error vector magnitude (EVM) value; try to demodulate each candidate modulation method one by one and record the EVM value of each modulation method.

[0045] Specifically, the above EVM value can be calculated by the following formula: ; in, For the The error vector of the symbol (the complex difference between the demodulated symbol and the ideal constellation point), N is the number of error vectors, is the average power of the ideal symbol.

[0046] Step 140: Use the synchronization point optimization strategy to select a target EVM value from multiple EVM values ​​to obtain a target modulation mode to achieve demodulation of the wireless signal.

[0047] In this step, the EVM value is used as an evaluation standard for demodulation performance. The lower the EVM, the closer the demodulation result is to the ideal constellation. For example, an EVM threshold for successful demodulation is set, and a modulation mode below the threshold is judged to be demodulated successfully, and the modulation mode and its parameters (such as symbol rate, frequency deviation, phase deviation, etc.) that are successfully demodulated are output.

[0048] In this embodiment, the demodulation result obtained according to the target modulation mode includes parameters such as the demodulated symbol stream, the modulation mode index, and the EVM value, which are used to provide input for subsequent signal processing.

[0049] Specifically, the process of blindly synchronizing and demodulating a continuous wireless signal includes: (1) Resample the signal to sps times the symbol rate, where the sps value is the interpolation multiple to ensure that there are integer samples within one symbol. The recommended sps value is 8 or 16; (2) By looping through each possible starting synchronization point (from 1 to sps), for each synchronization point, extract the sampled value of each symbol and use the sampled value to calculate the EVM; (3) Normalize the sampled values ​​to the average value, and then calculate the EVM using the ideal constellation diagram as a reference; (4) In actual operation, the synchronization point corresponding to the minimum EVM can be selected as the synchronization point of the signal, and the best extraction value of the signal can be extracted from this synchronization point as the data for subsequent processing.

[0050] The modulation identification method of wireless signals provided by the embodiment of the present invention extracts target features from the wireless signals to obtain the signal type of the wireless signals, determines candidate modulation modes according to the signal types, and then blindly modulates the wireless signals using the candidate modulation modes and calculates the error vector magnitude (EVM). Finally, a synchronization point optimization strategy is used to screen out the target EVM value from multiple EVM values ​​to obtain the target modulation mode, so as to realize demodulation of the wireless signals. By integrating the multi-dimensional features of the wireless signals and combining the error vector magnitude (EVM) to assist in the decision, the robustness and accuracy of the recognition under low signal-to-noise ratio conditions are enhanced.

[0051] In some embodiments, the target features are time domain features, frequency domain features, and time-frequency domain features; wherein the time domain features include the flatness of the signal envelope of the wireless signal; the frequency domain features include the number of peaks and the flatness of the spectrum of the power spectrum of the wireless signal; the time-frequency domain features include the flatness of the instantaneous frequency of the wireless signal; obtaining the signal type of the wireless signal based on the target features includes: When the number of peaks of the power spectrum of different powers of the wireless signal is 1 and the spectrum flatness of different powers is greater than the first threshold, it is determined that the signal type of the wireless signal includes a constant envelope signal.

[0052] In this embodiment, the first threshold is within the range of 0.2-0.5, for example, the first threshold is 0.3.

[0053] In this embodiment, if condition 1: the number of spectrum peaks of the first power, second power and fourth power of the signal is all 1 (vPeakNum is all 1), condition 2: the spectrum flatness of the first power, second power and fourth power of the signal is all greater than 0.3 (vKur>0.3), if either condition is not met, then continue to determine whether the wireless signal is an AM signal or a CW signal.

[0054] When the flatness of the signal envelope of the wireless signal is greater than the second threshold, and the flatness of the instantaneous frequency is greater than the third threshold, it is determined that the signal type of the wireless signal includes an amplitude modulation signal.

[0055] In this embodiment, the second threshold is within the range of 1-1.8, for example, the first threshold is 1.27; the third threshold is within the range of 1.5-2, for example, the first threshold is 1.8.

[0056] In this embodiment, the amplitude modulation signal includes a 2ASK signal or a 4ASK signal.

[0057] When the number of peaks of the 1st power power spectrum of the wireless signal is 0, the 1st power spectrum flatness is less than or equal to the first threshold, the number of peaks of the 4th power spectrum is 1, the 4th power spectrum flatness is greater than the first threshold, the instantaneous frequency flatness is less than or equal to the fourth threshold, and the flatness of the signal envelope is less than the fifth threshold, it is confirmed that the signal type of the wireless signal includes a quaternary offset quadrature phase shift keying signal 4OQPSK signal.

[0058] In this embodiment, the fourth threshold is within the range of 0.3-0.8, for example, the third threshold is 0.5; the fifth threshold is within the range of 0.2-0.5, for example, the fifth threshold is 0.35.

[0059] In this embodiment, whether the wireless signal includes a 4OQPSK signal is determined by the following determination conditions: Condition 1: The signal's first-order spectrum has no peak (vPeakNum(1) = 0), and the number of peaks in the fourth-order spectrum is 1 (vPeakNum(3) = 1), the first-order spectrum flatness vKur(1) is less than or equal to 0.3, and the fourth-order spectrum flatness vKur(3) is greater than 0.3.

[0060] Condition 2: The number of peaks in the quadratic spectrum of the signal is 2 (vPeakNum(2) ==2) and its flatness vKur(2) is less than or equal to 0.15; Alternatively, the instantaneous frequency flatness ftAbsKur0 is less than or equal to 0.5 and the envelope flatness evlpKur0 is less than 0.35.

[0061] If both condition 1 and condition 2 are satisfied at the same time, it is determined that the current wireless signal may be a 4OQPSK signal, and the current wireless signal is demodulated using the corresponding candidate modulation method. If the demodulation is successful, the subsequent steps are not performed.

[0062] The modulation identification method of wireless signals provided in the embodiment of the present invention realizes the step-by-step screening and rapid demodulation of constant envelope signals, amplitude modulated signals and 4OQPSK signals by extracting time domain features, frequency domain features and time-frequency domain features from wireless signals, thereby improving the real-time performance of the signal blind demodulation process.

[0063] In some embodiments, the target features are time domain features and frequency domain features; wherein the time domain features include the modulation depth of the signal envelope of the wireless signal; and the frequency domain features include the number of peaks and the spectrum flatness of the power spectrum of the wireless signal.

[0064] In this embodiment, in the process of identifying whether the wireless signal contains an amplitude modulation AM signal, the following processing may be performed to obtain corresponding time domain features and frequency domain features: 1. Perform spectrum analysis, use FFT to extract the signal spectrum, and find the main frequency component position estFcIdx corresponding to the wireless signal; then call the fine frequency estimation module to obtain a more accurate frequency offset estFc.

[0065] 2. Calculate the modulation depth, extract the signal envelope, and calculate the modulation depth (modDepth) as the characteristic parameter of the AM signal.

[0066] 3. Power spectrum characteristic analysis: perform power processing on the signal envelope and calculate the flatness and peak number of the power spectrum. The results are stored in vKurAM and vPeakNumAM.

[0067] The signal types for obtaining wireless signals based on target characteristics also include: Condition 1: when the number of peaks of the first-power power spectrum of the wireless signal is 2 and the spectrum flatness meets the sixth threshold, it is confirmed that the signal type of the wireless signal includes a binary frequency shift keying 2FSK signal and an amplitude modulation AM signal.

[0068] Condition 2: when the number of peaks of the square power spectrum of the wireless signal is 2 and the square spectrum flatness meets the sixth threshold, it is confirmed that the signal type of the wireless signal includes a binary minimum shift keying 2MSK signal and an AM signal.

[0069] When the number of peaks of the first-power power spectrum of the wireless signal is 2 and the first-power spectrum flatness satisfies the sixth threshold, it is determined that the signal type of the wireless signal includes a 2FSK signal.

[0070] In addition, whether the wireless signal is an AM signal can be determined by the calculated modulation depth; specifically: when the modulation depth is greater than the seventh threshold, the signal type of the wireless signal includes an AM signal; when the modulation depth is less than or equal to the seventh threshold, the signal type of the wireless signal includes a continuous wave CW signal.
