Modulation classification, an intermediate process between signal detection and demodulation in a physical layer, is now attracting more interest to the cognitive radio field, wherein the performance is powered by artificial intelligence algorithms. However, most existing conventional approaches pose the obstacle of effectively learning weakly discriminative modulation patterns. This paper proposes a robust modulation classification method by taking advantage of deep learning to capture the meaningful information of modulation signal at multi-scale feature representations. To this end, a novel architecture of convolutional neural network, namely Chain-Net, is developed with various asymmetric kernels organized in two processing flows and associated via depth-wise concatenation and element-wise addition for optimizing feature utilization. The network is evaluated on a big dataset of 14 challenging modulation formats, including analog and high-order digital techniques. The simulation results demonstrate that Chain-Net robustly classifies the modulation of radio signals suffering from a synthetic channel deterioration and further performs better than other deep networks.

In this paper, we consider using deep neural network for OFDM symbol detection and demonstrate its performance advantages in combating large Doppler Shift. In particular, a new architecture named Cascade-Net is proposed for detection, where deep neural network is cascading with a zero-forcing preprocessor to prevent the network stucking in a saddle point or a local minimum point. In addition, we propose a sliding detection approach in order to detect OFDM symbols with large number of subcarriers. We evaluate this new architecture, as well as the sliding algorithm, using the Rayleigh channel with large Doppler spread, which could degrade detection performance in an OFDM system and is especially severe for high frequency band and mmWave communications. The numerical results of OFDM detection in SISO scenario show that cascade-net can achieve better performance than zero-forcing method while providing robustness against ill conditioned channels. We also show the better performance of the sliding cascade network (SCN) compared to sliding zero-forcing detector through numerical simulation.
Modulation classification, recognized as the intermediate step between signal detection and demodulation, is widely deployed in several modern wireless communication systems. Although many approaches have been studied in the last decades for identifying the modulation format of an incoming signal, they often reveal the obstacle of learning radio characteristics for most traditional machine learning algorithms. To overcome this drawback, we propose an accurate modulation classification method by exploiting deep learning for being compatible with constellation diagram. Particularly, a convolutional neural network is developed for proficiently learning the most relevant radio characteristics of gray-scale constellation image. The deep network is specified by multiple processing blocks, where several grouped and asymmetric convolutional layers in each block are organized by a flow-in-flow structure for feature enrichment. These blocks are connected via skip-connection to prevent the vanishing gradient problem while effectively preserving the information identify throughout the network. Regarding several intensive simulations on the constellation image dataset of eight digital modulations, the proposed deep network achieves the remarkable classification accuracy of approximately 87% at 0 dB signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) under a multipath Rayleigh fading channel and further outperforms some state-of-the-art deep models of constellation-based modulation classification.
As a green and secure wireless transmission way, secure spatial modulation (SM) is becoming a hot research area. Its basic idea is to exploit both the index of activated transmit antenna and amplitude phase modulation (APM) signal to carry messages, improve security, and save energy. In this paper, we reviewed its crucial techniques: transmit antenna selection (TAS), artificial noise (AN) projection, power allocation (PA), and joint detection at desired receiver. To achieve the optimal performance of maximum likelihood (ML) detector, a deep-neural-network (DNN) joint detector is proposed to jointly infer the index of transmit antenna and signal constellation point with a lower-complexity. Here, each layer of DNN is redesigned to optimize the joint inference performance of two distinct types of information: transmit antenna index and signal constellation point. Simulation results show that the proposed DNN method performs 3dB better than the conventional DNN structure and is close to ML detection in the low and medium signal-to-noise ratio regions in terms of the bit error rate (BER) performance, but its complexity is far lower-complexity compared to ML. Finally, three key techniques TAS, PA, and AN projection at transmitter can be combined to make SM a true secure modulation.
In the paper we study a deep learning based method to solve the multicell power control problem for sum rate maximization subject to per-user rate constraints and per-base station (BS) power constraints. The core difficulty of this problem is how to ensure that the learned power control results by the deep neural network (DNN) satisfy the per-user rate constraints. To tackle the difficulty, we propose to cascade a projection block after a traditional DNN, which projects the infeasible power control results onto the constraint set. The projection block is designed based on a geometrical interpretation of the constraints, which is of low complexity, meeting the real-time requirement of online applications. Explicit-form expression of the backpropagated gradient is derived for the proposed projection block, with which the DNN can be trained to directly maximize the sum rate via unsupervised learning. We also develop a heuristic implementation of the projection block to reduce the size of DNN. Simulation results demonstrate the advantages of the proposed method over existing deep learning and numerical optimization~methods, and show the robustness of the proposed method with the model mismatch between training and testing~datasets.
Millimeter-wave (mmWave) communications have been one of the promising technologies for future wireless networks that integrate a wide range of data-demanding applications. To compensate for the large channel attenuation in mmWave band and avoid high hardware cost, a lens-based beamspace massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system is considered. However, the beam squint effect in wideband mmWave systems makes channel estimation very challenging, especially when the receiver is equipped with a limited number of radio-frequency (RF) chains. Furthermore, the real channel data cannot be obtained before the mmWave system is used in a new environment, which makes it impossible to train a deep learning (DL)-based channel estimator using real data set beforehand. To solve the problem, we propose a model-driven unsupervised learning network, named learned denoising-based generalized expectation consistent (LDGEC) signal recovery network. By utilizing the Steins unbiased risk estimator loss, the LDGEC network can be trained only with limited measurements corresponding to the pilot symbols, instead of the real channel data. Even if designed for unsupervised learning, the LDGEC network can be supervisingly trained with the real channel via the denoiser-by-denoiser way. The numerical results demonstrate that the LDGEC-based channel estimator significantly outperforms state-of-the-art compressive sensing-based algorithms when the receiver is equipped with a small number of RF chains and low-resolution ADCs.
