description In signal communication based on a non-cooperative communication system, the receiver is an unlicensed third-party communication terminal, and the modulation parameters of the transmitter signal cannot be predicted in advance. After the RF signal passes through the RF band-pass filter, low noise amplifier, and image rejection filter, the intermediate frequency signal is obtained by down-conversion, and then the IQ signal is obtained in the baseband by using the intermediate frequency band-pass filter and down-conversion. In this process, noise and signal frequency offset are inevitably introduced. As the basis of subsequent analysis and interpretation, modulation recognition has important research value in this environment. The introduction of deep learning also brings new feature mining tools. Based on this, this paper proposes a signal modulation recognition method based on multi-feature fusion and constructs a deep learning network with a double-branch structure to extract the features of IQ signal and multi-channel constellation, respectively. It is found that through the complementary characteristics of different forms of signals, a more complete signal feature representation can be constructed. At the same time, it can better alleviate the influence of noise and frequency offset on recognition performance, and effectively improve the classification accuracy of modulation recognition.
