Abstract
En 中文
Automatic Modulation Recognition (AMR) is a key technology for spectrum sensing and signal demodulation in cognitive radio systems. Most existing AMR methods use raw In-phase/Quadrature (I/Q) data or direct transformations of I/Q data as neural network inputs, while the nonlinear interaction between signal amplitude and phase is not explicitly modelled. This limitation can constrain recognition performance in complex channels and high-order modulation schemes. To address this issue, an AMR method based on Amplitude/Phase (A/P) interaction enhancement is proposed. An Amplitude–Phase Interaction Autoencoder (APIAE) with a residual transition module is designed to learn amplitude–phase interaction features in the polar coordinate domain through unsupervised reconstruction, and the learned interaction features are concatenated with the raw A/P data to form an enhanced three-channel representation for downstream classifiers. Experiments on a subset of RadioML2018.01A show that all five evaluated backbone networks benefit from the proposed representation. Across four independent runs, GRU-Enhanced attains a mean best accuracy of 98.72±0.20%, CLDNN achieves a 7.39% relative gain in overall mean accuracy, and the recognition rates of 16QAM and 64QAM remain markedly improved at 4 dB. The classifier-side input adaptation increases the parameter count by less than 0.5% for all evaluated backbones, while the standalone APIAE front-end contains approximately 7.35 million parameters. The additional end-to-end single-sample inference latency relative to the raw backbone does not exceed 12 μs in the tested environment.
