Cooperative Multi-Node Jamming Recognition Method Based on Deep Residual Network

Anti-jamming is the core issue of wireless communication viability in complex electromagnetic environments, where jamming recognition is the precondition and foundation of cognitive anti-jamming. In the current jamming recognition methods, the existing convolutional networks are limited by the small number of layers and the extracted feature information. Simultaneously, simple stacking of layers will lead to the disappearance of gradients and the decrease in correct recognition rate. Meanwhile, most of the jamming recognition methods use single-node methods, which are easily affected by the channel and have a low recognition rate under the low jamming-to-signal ratio (JSR). To solve these problems, a multi-node cooperative jamming recognition method based on deep residual networks was proposed in this paper, and two data fusion algorithms based on hard fusion and soft fusion for jamming recognition were designed. Simulation results show that the use of deep residual networks to replace the original shallow CNN network structure can gain a 6-14% improvement in the correct recognition rate of jamming signals, and the hard and soft fusion-based methods can significantly improve the correct jamming recognition rate by about 3-7% and 5-12%, respectively, under low JSR conditions compared with the existing single-node method.
