Unidimensional ACGAN Applied to Link Establishment Behaviors Recognition of a Short-Wave Radio Station.

ABSTRACT

It is difficult to obtain many labeled Link Establishment (LE) behavior signals sent by non-cooperative short-wave radio stations. We propose a novel unidimensional Auxiliary Classifier Generative Adversarial Network (ACGAN) to get more signals and then use unidimensional DenseNet to recognize LE behaviors. Firstly, a few real samples were randomly selected from many real signals as the training set of unidimensional ACGAN. Then, the new training set was formed by combining real samples with fake samples generated by the trained ACGAN. In addition, the unidimensional convolutional auto-coder was proposed to describe the reliability of these generated samples. Finally, different LE behaviors could be recognized without the communication protocol standard by using the new training set to train unidimensional DenseNet. Experimental results revealed that unidimensional ACGAN effectively augmented the training set, thus improving the performance of recognition algorithm. When the number of original training samples was 400, 700, 1000, or 1300, the recognition accuracy of unidimensional ACGAN+DenseNet was 1.92, 6.16, 4.63, and 3.06% higher, respectively, than that of unidimensional DenseNet.
