Abstract
Automatic modulation recognition (AMR) becomes more important because of usable in advanced general-purpose communication such as cognitive radio as well as specific applications. Therefore, developments should be made for widely used modulation types; machine learning techniques should be tried for this problem. In this study, we evaluate performance of different machine learning algorithms for AMR. Specifically, we propose nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) technique and additionally we evaluate performance of artificial neural networks (ANN), support vector machines (SVM), random forest tree, k-nearest neighbor (k-NN), Hoeffding tree, logistic regression and Naive Bayes methods to obtain comparative results. These are most preferred feature extraction methods in the literature and they are used for a set of modulation types for general-purpose communication. We compare their recognition performance in accuracy metric. Additionally, we prepare and donate the first data set to University of California-Machine Learning Repository related with AMR.
