文摘Modulation signal classification in communication systems can be considered a pattern recognition problem.Earlier works have focused on several feature extraction approaches such as fractal feature,signal constellation reconstruction,etc.The recent advent of deep learning(DL)models makes it possible to proficiently classify the modulation signals.In this view,this study designs a chaotic oppositional satin bowerbird optimization(COSBO)with bidirectional long term memory(BiLSTM)model for modulation signal classification in communication systems.The proposed COSBO-BiLSTM technique aims to classify the different kinds of digitally modulated signals.In addition,the fractal feature extraction process takes place by the use of Sevcik Fractal Dimension(SFD)approach.Moreover,the modulation signal classification process takes place using BiLSTM with fully convolutional network(BiLSTM-FCN).Furthermore,the optimal hyperparameter adjustment of the BiLSTM-FCN technique takes place by the use of COSBO algorithm.In order to ensure the enhanced classification performance of the COSBO-BiLSTM model,a wide range of simulations were carried out.The experimental results highlighted that the COSBO-BiLSTM technique has accomplished improved performance over the existing techniques.
文摘In this paper,a new likelihood-based method for classifying phase-amplitude-modulated signals in Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) is proposed.The method introduces a new Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm,called the Adaptive Metropolis (AM) algorithm,to directly generate the samples of the target posterior distribution and implement the multidimensional integrals of likelihood function.Modulation classification is achieved along with joint estimation of unknown parameters by running an ergodic Markov Chain.Simulation results show that the proposed method has the advantages of high accuracy and robustness to phase and frequency offset.

文摘In recent years,as intelligent transportation systems(ITS)such as autonomous driving and advanced driver-assistance systems have become more popular,there has been a rise in the need for different sources of traffic situation data.The classification of the road surface type,also known as the RST,is among the most essential of these situational data and can be utilized across the entirety of the ITS domain.Recently,the benefits of deep learning(DL)approaches for sensor-based RST classification have been demonstrated by automatic feature extraction without manual methods.The ability to extract important features is vital in making RST classification more accurate.This work investigates the most recent advances in DL algorithms for sensor-based RST classification and explores appropriate feature extraction models.We used different convolutional neural networks to understand the functional architecture better;we constructed an enhanced DL model called SE-ResNet,which uses residual connections and squeeze-and-excitation mod-ules to improve the classification performance.Comparative experiments with a publicly available benchmark dataset,the passive vehicular sensors dataset,have shown that SE-ResNet outperforms other state-of-the-art models.The proposed model achieved the highest accuracy of 98.41%and the highest F1-score of 98.19%when classifying surfaces into segments of dirt,cobblestone,or asphalt roads.Moreover,the proposed model significantly outperforms DL networks(CNN,LSTM,and CNN-LSTM).The proposed RE-ResNet achieved the classification accuracies of asphalt roads at 98.98,cobblestone roads at 97.02,and dirt roads at 99.56%,respectively.
