Abstract: | Automatic modulation recognition (AMR) can be used in dynamic spectrum access (DSA) techniques to reduce the pressure on spectrum resources. In this paper, we propose a multiscale convolution-based network model called MSNet-SF, which combines traditional statistical features and deep learning (DL) to balance recognition accuracy and complexity. In the model, the feature information is extracted by two multiscale modules, which consist of unit convolution and three different sizes of convolution kernels arranged in parallel. Additionally, the sparse connectivity of unit convolution enables the network to be more lightweight. Five statistical features (four higher-order cumulants (HOCs) and one zero-centered normalized instantaneous magnitude tightness) are also input into the model and are fully fused with the main feature map by multiplication to achieve complementarity of long-term and short-term features. This approach yields a large performance gain at a small cost and greatly reduces the confusion between QAM16 and QAM64. Simulation results in the RML2018.10A dataset show that the average recognition accuracy of the model improved by 4% after adding the statistical features and achieved an accuracy of more than 97% from 12 dB. |
