Abstract:
Automatic Modulation Classification (AMC) is crucial in non-cooperative communication systems as it facilitates the identification of interference signals with minimal prior knowledge. Although there have been significant advancements in Deep Learning (DL) within the field of AMC, leveraging the inherent relationships between In-phase (I) and Quadrature-phase (Q) components, and enhance recognition accuracy under low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions remains a challenge. This study introduces a complex-valued convolutional fusion-type multi-stream spatiotemporal network (CC-MSNet) for AMC, which combines spatial and temporal feature extraction modules for modulation recognition. Experimental results demonstrate that the CC-MSNet performs well on three benchmark datasets, RML2016.10a, RML2016.10b, and RML2016.04c, with average recognition accuracy of 62.86%, 65.08%, and 71.12%. It also performs excellently in low SNR environments below 0dB, significantly outperforming other networks.

State Space to Transfer Function
The transformation process begins with the state-space representation, characterized by the state equation and the output equation. These equations are typically represented as:
Propagation of Action Potentials
Neurons (nerve cells) have a resting membrane potential, with a slightly negative charge inside compared to outside. This is maintained by ion channels, such as sodium (Na+) and potassium (K+) channels, which control the flow of ions. When a stimulus, like a touch or a signal from another neuron, triggers the neuron, sodium channels open, allowing sodium ions to...
Basic Continuous Time Signals
The unit step function, denoted u(t), is zero for negative time values and one for positive time values, exhibiting a discontinuity at t=0. This function often represents abrupt changes, such as the step voltage introduced when turning a car's...

Convolution Properties I
The commutative property reveals that the input and the impulse response of an LTI (Linear Time-Invariant) system can be interchanged without affecting the output:
Convolution Properties II
The width property indicates that if the durations of input signals are T1 and T2, then the width of the output response equals the sum of both durations, irrespective of the shapes of the two functions. For instance, convolving two rectangular pulses with durations of 2 seconds and 1 second results in a function with a width of 3 seconds.
The area property asserts that the area under the...
