The paper "Convolutional Radio Modulation Recognition Networks" by Timothy J. O'Shea, Johnathan Corgan, and T. Charles Clancy explores the application of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to the task of radio modulation classification. The authors compare the performance of CNNs trained on raw, complex-valued time series data against expert feature-based methods commonly used in radio communications. They demonstrate that CNNs can achieve significant performance improvements, particularly at low signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs), making them a viable and powerful approach for dynamic spectrum access (DSA) and cognitive radio systems. The study uses a synthetic dataset that includes various modulation types and realistic channel effects, and evaluates the performance of different CNN architectures, including a 4-layer CNN and a deep neural network (DNN). The results show that the CNN model achieves an accuracy of around 87.4% on the test dataset, outperforming expert feature-based methods by 2.5-5 dB at low SNRs. The paper also discusses the computational complexity of the models and suggests future directions for improving the performance and scalability of the approach.The paper "Convolutional Radio Modulation Recognition Networks" by Timothy J.
