Specific Emitter Identification Using Signal Trajectory Image
摘要
The radio frequency fingerprinting of the emitter is complex, and the performance of Specific Emitter Identification (SEI) is subjected to the present expertise. To remedy this shortcoming, this paper presents a novel SEI algorithm based on signal trajectory image, which realizes joint extraction of multiple complex fingerprints using deep learning architecture. First, this paper analyses the visual characteristics of multiple emitter imperfections in the signal trajectory image. Thereafter, signal trajectory grayscale image is used as the signal representation. Finally, a deep residual network is constructed to learn the visual characteristics reflected in the images. The proposed method overcomes the limitations of existing knowledge, and combines high information integrity with low computational complexity. Simulation results demonstrate that, compared with the existing algorithms, the proposed one can remarkably improve the SEI performance with a gain of about 30%.
