Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to an intelligent signal waveform analysis method for handheld devices and belongs to the technical field of deep learning. Background Art
[0002] Existing signal analyzers usually rely on Fourier transform for signal processing and analysis, and have limitations in processing certain complex non-periodic signals and non-stationary signals. For a finite-length non-periodic signal, during truncation, the spectrum undergoes convolution, resulting in the appearance of false components in the spectrum and causing spectral leakage, which affects the frequency resolution and the overall shape of the spectrum, making the analysis results inaccurate. For non-stationary signals, the product of the time-domain window and the frequency-domain window is constant and greater than or equal to one-half. This means that it is impossible to simultaneously obtain high time resolution and frequency resolution. Signal analyzers usually need to process a large amount of data and perform complex mathematical operations and signal processing, and usually rely on high-performance computers for data analysis or use professional data processing software to assist in the analysis. They consume a large amount of power, and the data processing and analysis process takes a long time with high latency. Especially when processing large-scale data sets or performing real-time analysis, they not only cannot meet the real-time requirements of mobile scenarios but also cause cost waste. Traditional desktop spectrometers or waveform analyzers usually have a large volume and weight, are not convenient to carry and use mobilely, and are difficult to deploy in mobile application environments such as on-site, vehicle-mounted, and airborne. This poses a challenge for applications that require rapid measurements on-site. Although modern spectrometers and waveform analyzers are more compact and lightweight in design, their portability still needs to be improved compared to portable measurement devices. Moreover, existing portable devices have limited functions and lack intelligent recognition capabilities, and only support basic spectrum measurements. Therefore, the present invention proposes an intelligent signal waveform analysis method that combines deep learning and embedded computing, and focuses on deploying intelligent analysis algorithms on lightweight handheld devices to achieve a lightweight, accurate, efficient, and intelligent signal waveform cognitive analysis system. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The present invention aims to solve the problems that existing portable measurement devices have limited functions, lack intelligent recognition capabilities, and only support basic spectrum measurements, and further proposes an intelligent signal waveform analysis method for handheld devices.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above problems is as follows: The present invention includes the following steps:
[0005] Step 1: Use a handheld device to receive IQ data streams;
[0006] Step 2: Preprocess the received IQ data streams;
[0007] Step 3: Use the preprocessed IQ data streams to train a deep learning model;
[0008] Step 4: Obtain the signal waveform monitoring and recognition results based on the trained deep learning model.
[0009] Further, step 2 specifically includes:
[0010] Step 2.1: Normalize the received IQ data stream.
[0011] Step 2.2: Frame the normalized IQ data stream.
[0012] Step 2.3: Convert the framed IQ data into a three-dimensional tensor, where the three-dimensional tensor is the number of signal samples × time steps × 2, and the last dimension '2' corresponds to the real and imaginary parts of the IQ data stream respectively, completing the preprocessing of the IQ data stream and outputting the IQ data stream after format conversion.
[0013] Further, step 2.2 specifically includes:
[0014] Divide the continuous IQ data stream after normalization processing into equal-length segments according to a time window. During the framing process, a 10% repetition rate is adopted, and the length of each frame is divided into 2400 sampling points.
[0015] Further, in step 3, the deep learning model adopts a CNN + LSTM structure for learning time series features and distinguishing input signals of different modulation types, where CNN is a convolutional neural network and LSTM is a long short-term memory network.
[0016] Further, the training steps in step 3 include:
[0017] Step 3.1: Configure the API training environment and set the deep learning architecture.
[0018] Step 3.2: Set the optimization parameters during the training process.
[0019] Step 3.3: Set the network structure of the deep learning model, and divide the preprocessed IQ data stream into a training set and a test set according to a ratio of 7:3.
[0020] Step 3.4: Use the training set to train the deep learning model. After each training is completed, input the validation set for analysis. If the accuracy of the analysis result does not meet the preset value, improve the network. If the recognition detection is not completed, deepen the network layer and repeat the training of the network's optimization parameters until the accuracy of the analysis result meets the preset value.
[0021] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0022] 1) The present invention can achieve efficient and intelligent analysis, surpassing traditional signal processing methods. By leveraging the powerful feature learning ability of deep learning, the present invention realizes a robust and reliable signal recognition function. Adopting deep learning + time-frequency analysis, it breaks through the limitations of traditional Fourier transform. It can detect communication modulation signals, frequency hopping signals, and radar signals in real time, improving the signal recognition accuracy, with the recognition accuracy > 95%.

Call the network model for waveform analysis, and build a deep learning environment (miniforge3) on the embedded Linux platform. According to the model requirements and the size of resources and data, input the preprocessed two-path IQ data into the loaded model and obtain the output result.
