无源数据下跨接收机设备指纹识别,提升真实场景适应性。

Exploiting Radio Frequency Fingerprints for Device Identification: Tackling Cross-receiver Challenges in the Source-data-free Scenario

  • 用动量引导的软伪标签实现无源数据跨接收机适配
  • 在真实数据集上准确率超越现有方法,抗分布偏移能力强
  • 适合边缘计算中设备认证的部署,无需源端数据

随着边缘计算的快速发展,射频指纹识别(RFFI)在设备安全认证中日益重要。然而,基于深度学习的RFFI模型在不同硬件接收机间应用时性能常显著下降,这是由接收机差异引入的分布偏移所致。本文研究源数据不可用条件下的跨接收机RFFI(SCRFFI)问题:预训练于源接收机的模型需在无源数据情况下适应目标接收机的未标注信号。我们提出一种带约束的伪标签自适应框架,并给出泛化性能的理论分析,揭示目标域性能对伪标签质量高度敏感。据此,提出MS-SHOT方法,结合动量中心引导的软伪标签与全局结构约束,提升预测置信度与多样性。该方法有效应对目标域标签偏移或非均匀类别分布问题,是以往方法的重大改进。在多个真实数据集上的大量实验表明,MS-SHOT在准确率与鲁棒性上均优于现有方法,为源数据不可用场景下的跨接收机适配提供了实用且可扩展的解决方案。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

With the rapid proliferation of edge computing, Radio Frequency Fingerprint Identification (RFFI) has become increasingly important for secure device authentication. However, practical deployment of deep learning-based RFFI models is hindered by a critical challenge: their performance often degrades significantly when applied across receivers with different hardware characteristics due to distribution shifts introduced by receiver variation. To address this, we investigate the source-data-free cross-receiver RFFI (SCRFFI) problem, where a model pretrained on labeled signals from a source receiver must adapt to unlabeled signals from a target receiver, without access to any source-domain data during adaptation. We first formulate a novel constrained pseudo-labeling-based SCRFFI adaptation framework, and provide a theoretical analysis of its generalization performance. Our analysis highlights a key insight: the target-domain performance is highly sensitive to the quality of the pseudo-labels generated during adaptation. Motivated by this, we propose Momentum Soft pseudo-label Source Hypothesis Transfer (MS-SHOT), a new method for SCRFFI that incorporates momentum-center-guided soft pseudo-labeling and enforces global structural constraints to encourage confident and diverse predictions. Notably, MS-SHOT effectively addresses scenarios involving label shift or unknown, non-uniform class distributions in the target domain -- a significant limitation of prior methods. Extensive experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that MS-SHOT consistently outperforms existing approaches in both accuracy and robustness, offering a practical and scalable solution for source-data-free cross-receiver adaptation in RFFI.
