原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Radio frequency (RF) communication has been an important part of civil and military communication for decades. With the increasing complexity of wireless environments and the growing number of devices sharing the spectrum, it has become critical to efficiently manage and classify the signals that populate these frequencies. In such scenarios, the accurate classification of wireless signals is essential for effective spectrum management, signal interception, and interference mitigation. However, the classification of wireless RF signals often faces challenges due to the limited availability of labeled training data, especially under low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions. To address these challenges, this paper proposes the use of a Vector-Quantized Variational Autoencoder (VQ-VAE) to augment training data, thereby enhancing the performance of a baseline wireless classifier. The VQ-VAE model generates high-fidelity synthetic RF signals, increasing the diversity and fidelity of the training dataset by capturing the complex variations inherent in RF communication signals. Our experimental results show that incorporating VQ-VAE-generated data significantly improves the classification accuracy of the baseline model, particularly in low SNR conditions. This augmentation leads to better generalization and robustness of the classifier, overcoming the constraints imposed by limited real-world data. By improving RF signal classification, the proposed approach enhances the efficacy of wireless communication in both civil and tactical settings, ensuring reliable and secure operations. This advancement supports critical decision-making and operational readiness in environments where communication fidelity is essential.
