Abstract

Automatic modulation recognition (AMR) of radar signals is a currently active area, especially in electronic reconnaissance, where systems need to quickly identify the intercepted signal and formulate corresponding interference measures on computationally limited platforms. However, previous methods generally have high computational complexity and considerable network parameters, making the system unable to detect the signal timely in resource-constrained environments. This letter firstly proposes an efficient modulation recognition network (EMRNet) with tiny and lowlatency models to match the requirements for mobile reconnaissance equipments. One-dimensional residual depthwise separable convolutions block (1D-RDSB) with an adaptive size of receptive fields is developed in EMRNet to replace the traditional convolution block. With 1D-RDSB, EMRNet achieves a high classification accuracy and dramatically reduces computation cost and network paraments. The experiment results show that EMRNet can achieve higher precision than existing 2D-CNN methods, while the computational cost and parament amount of EMRNet are reduced by about 13.93× and 80.88×, respectively.
