Abstract:

Multi-h continuous phase modulation (CPM) signal is indistinguishable from Single-h CPM signal, when the latter's modulation index is equal to the former's average of modulation indices, for their characteristics are similar. Aiming at this problem, a Multi-h CPM modulation recognition algorithm based on approximate entropy is proposed. The algorithm splits the complete sequence of signal into multiple sub-sequences according to the same modulation index, and discards the extra pattern vectors generated by splicing between symbols, to modify the approximate entropy. Then it uses the difference of entropy between subsequences of the Multi-h CPM signal, the inter-class recognition of Multi-h CPM signal and Single-h CPM signal is completed. Finally, the intra-class identification is accomplished by using probabilistic neural networks. The experimental results show that the algorithm can achieve 90% recognition rate when the signal-to-noise ratio is as low as 11 dB.
