| Abstract | ||||
| This paper presents an innovative deep-learning model for Automatic Modulation Classification (AMC) in wireless communication systems. The proposed architecture integrates Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks, augmented by a Gaussian noise layer to mitigate overfitting. The integration of both networks seeks to enhance classification accuracy and performance by leveraging the unique capabilities of CNNs and LSTMs in capturing spatial and temporal features, respectively. The model is expected to distinguish between eight digital and two analog modulation modes. Experimental evaluation on the RadioML2016.10b dataset demonstrates a peak recognition accuracy of 93.2% at 18 dB SNR. Comparative analyses validate the superior performance of the proposed architecture. The Gaussian noise layer contributes significantly to a 3% performance improvement at 18 dB SNR. The model achieves recognition accuracy exceeding 96% for most modulation modes, highlighting its robustness. Finally, computational complexity analysis underscores the efficiency of the proposed architecture, reinforcing its practical viability. | ||||
