Summary
This study introduces an Archimedes Optimization Algorithm (AOA) and Random Forest (RF) classifier for underwater acoustic communication signal modulation recognition. The novel method achieves high accuracy, reaching 95% at signal-to-noise ratios above -5dB.
Area of Science:
- Underwater Acoustic Communication
- Signal Processing
- Machine Learning
Background:
- Noncooperative underwater communication relies on accurate modulation signal recognition.
- Traditional signal classifiers require improvement in accuracy and recognition effects.
Purpose of the Study:
- To enhance the accuracy and effectiveness of underwater acoustic communication signal modulation recognition.
- To propose a novel classifier combining the Archimedes Optimization Algorithm (AOA) and Random Forest (RF).
Main Methods:
- Selected seven different types of underwater acoustic signals for recognition.
- Extracted 11 feature parameters from the selected signals.
- Utilized the Archimedes Optimization Algorithm (AOA) to optimize Random Forest (RF) parameters (decision tree and depth).
Main Results:
- The optimized Random Forest classifier achieved high recognition accuracy for underwater acoustic communication signal modulation modes.
- Recognition accuracy reached 95% when the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) was higher than -5dB.
- The proposed method demonstrated superior accuracy and stability compared to other classification and recognition methods.
Conclusions:
- The AOA-optimized RF classifier effectively recognizes underwater acoustic communication signal modulation modes.
- The proposed method offers a significant improvement in recognition accuracy and stability for noncooperative underwater communication.
- This approach provides a robust solution for critical applications in underwater acoustic environments.
