| Summary: | It is difficult to recognize Automatic Link Establishment (ALE) behaviors of a short-wave radio station, if we do not acquire the radio station's communication protocol standard. A method is proposed to recognize different ALE behaviors by using an improved unidimensional DenseNet. In this work, we directly recognize ALE signals in physical layer without the radio station's communication protocol standard. Hence, we can avoid difficulties in demodulation, decryption and so on. Actually, the original DenseNet is used extensively in the field of computer vision, so the original DenseNet is firstly adapted for the unidimensional input. And then, two parallel dense blocks are used in our improved unidimensional DenseNet, which could improve the capability of network to extract ALE signals' deep features. The experimental results show that the proposed method is able to recognize different ALE behaviors of a short-wave radio station. And improved DenseNet has better recognition performance than simple DenseNet. The simple DenseNet only contains one dense block. Finally, the results of comparison experiments also show that some classic networks have worse performance in ALE behaviors recognition, such as LeNet-5, ResNet-34, and DenseNet-121.
