基于实时符号速率估计的频移键控信号盲解调方法

    Blind demodulation method for frequency shift keying signals based on real-time symbol rate estimation

    • 摘要: 频移键控信号的盲解调对频谱监测、电子对抗等领域有着重要意义。针对现有两级架构法性能受参数估计误差累积限制,存在抗噪声能力不足,解调损失大的问题,文章提出一种基于实时符号速率估计的盲解调方法。该方法首先建立解调数学模型并提取瞬时频率序列,在此基础上引入频率分布熵和质心位置特征对解调结果进行定量描述,通过最小化所提特征的方式,实现了符号速率高精度估计和低误码率非合作解调的一体化设计。仿真实验表明,所提算法解调损耗不高于0.5 dB,码速率估计精度在0 dB时高于92%,较现有算法均有明显提升,具备良好的工程实用能力。

       

      Abstract: The research on blind demodulation of frequency-shift keying signals has significant implications for spectrum monitoring, electronic countermeasures, and other related fields. However, the existing two-stage architecture method is constrained by accumulated parameter estimation errors, insufficient noise resistance capability, and high demodulation loss. Aiming at this problem, a novel blind demodulation method based on real-time symbol rate estimation is proposed in this paper. The approach initially establishes a mathematical model for demodulation and extracts instantaneous frequency sequences. Subsequently, it incorporates frequency distribution entropy and centroid position features to quantitatively describe the obtained demodulation results. By minimizing these proposed features, an integrated design that combines high-precision symbol rate estimation with low bit error rate non-cooperative demodulation is achieved. simulation experiments demonstrate that proposed algorithm exhibits a maximum demodulation loss of 0.5 dB and achieves a symbol rate estimation accuracy above 92% at 0 dB signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), surpassing existing algorithms significantly while demonstrating excellent engineering practicality.
