Abstract :
This work presents a novel method for automatic modulation classification based on discriminative learning. The features are the ordered magnitude and phase of the received symbols at the output of the matched filter. The results using the proposed front end and support vector machines are compared to other techniques. Frequency offset is also considered and the results show that in this condition the new method significantly outperforms two cumulant-based classifiers.
