Spread Spectrum and Conventional Modulation Signal Recognition Method Based on Generative Adversarial Network and Multi-modal Attention Mechanism
Considering the low classification accuracy of spreading and conventional modulated signals under low signal-to-noise ratio conditions, a multimodal attention mechanism signal modulation recognition method based on Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network is proposed. Firstly, the Time-Frequency Images (TFIs) of the to-be-recognized signals are generated and the noise reduction process of TFIs is realized by using GAN; Secondly, the In-phase and Quadrature data (I/Q data) of the signals with TFIs are used as model inputs, and the CNN-based TFIs recognition branch and the LSTM-based I/Q data recognition branch are built; Finally, an attentional mechanism is added to the model to enhance the role of important features in I/Q data and TFIs in the determination of classification results. The experimental results show that the proposed method effectively improves the overall classification accuracy by 2% to 7% compared with the unimodal recognition model and other baseline models, and possesses stronger feature expression capability and robustness under low signal-to-noise ratio conditions.
