Abstract:

Under the condition that the communication protocol standard is unknown, the improved DenseNet can recognize a short-wave radio station's different automatic link establishment behaviors, which plays an important role in detecting non-cooperative stations' communication intentions. However, the reliability of network model's recognition needs to be further explored. Therefore, by visualizing the network's internal structure, it is deduced whether the network model can effectively extract the deep features of the link establishment behaviors signals. The feature dimension of the convolutional layer is large, it is not conducive to observe the deep features of the link establishment behavior signal. So the visualization analysis of the full connected layer inside the network is carried out. The experimental results show that the network model can effectively extract the deep features' similarities of the same behavior signals and the deep features' differences of different behavior signals. And experiment of heat maps further improves the credibility of our experimental results.

Key words: visualization, behavior recognition, heat map, DenseNet, automatic link establishment behavior, short-wave radio station
