Description
Summary:Modulation classification (MC) is a critical task in wireless communication systems, enabling the identification of the modulation class in the received signals. In this paper, we analyzed a novel multi-layer convolutional neural network (CNN) to extract hierarchical features directly from the raw baseband samples. Moreover, we compared the training and testing accuracy of the CNN model for various decimation rates, input sample size and the number of convolutional layers. The results showed that the three-layer CNN model provided better classification accuracy with less computation cost. Furthermore, we observed that the MC performance of the proposed CNN model was better than the other deep learning (DL) and cumulant-based models.
