A Review of Research on Signal Modulation Recognition Based on Deep Learning

Abstract

Since the emergence of 5G technology, the wireless communication system has had a huge data throughput, so the joint development of artificial intelligence technology and wireless communication technology is one of the current mainstream development directions. In particular the combination of deep learning technology and communication physical layer technology is the future research hotspot. The purpose of this research paper is to summarize the related algorithms of the combination of Automatic Modulation Recognition (AMR) technology and deep learning technology in the communication physical layer. In order to elicit the advantages of the modulation recognition algorithm based on deep learning, this paper firstly introduces the traditional AMR method, and then summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of the traditional algorithm. Then, the application of the deep learning algorithm in AMR is described, and the identification method based on a typical deep learning network is emphatically described. Afterwards, the existing Deep Learning (DL) modulation identification algorithm in a small sample environment is summarized. Finally, DL modulation is discussed, identifying field challenges, and future research directions.
