    Automatic modulation classification for mimo systems using fourth-order cumulants
    (IEEE, 2012) Mühlhaus, Michael S.; Öner, Mustafa Mengüç; Dobre, Octavia Adina; Jkel, Holger U.; Jondral, Friedrich K.
    Automatic classification of the modulation type of an unknown communication signal is a challenging task, with applications in both commercial and military contexts, such as spectrum surveillance, cognitive radio, and electronic warfare systems. Most of the automatic modulation classification (AMC) algorithms found in the literature assume that the signal of interest has been transmitted using a single antenna. In this paper, a novel AMC algorithm for multiple input multiple output (MIMO) signals is proposed, which employs fourth-order cumulants as features for classification. First, perfect channel state information (CSI) is assumed. Subsequently, a case of more practical relevance is considered, where the channel matrix is unknown and has to be estimated blindly by employing independent component analysis (ICA). The performance of the proposed classification algorithm is investigated through simulations and compared with an average likelihood ratio test (ALRT) which can be considered as optimum in the Bayesian sense, but has a very high computational complexity.

    MIMO sinyalleri için uzay-zaman blok kodu klasifikasyonu
    (IEEE, 2014-04-26) Turan, Merve; Öner, Mustafa Mengüç; Çırpan, Hakan Ali
    Bilinmeyen haberleşme sinyallerinin gözü kapalı ve işbirliksiz tanınması için geliştirilen teknikler, hem askeri hem de sivil uygulamalarda kullanım bulmuştur. Çok Girdili Çok Çıktılı (MIMO) haberleşme sistemleri, sinyal tanıma sistemleri için üstesinden gelinmesi gereken yeni problemler ortaya koymaktadır. MIMO haberleşmesinde kullanılan uzay zaman kodlarının gözükapalı tanınması bu problemlerin en önemlilerinden biri olarak görülebilir. Bu çalışmada uzay zaman blok kodlanmış sinyal vektörlerinin döngüsel-durağan (cyclostationary) karakteristiklerinin farklı uzay zaman blok kodlarını birbirinden ayırdetmek amacıyla kullanıldığı yenilikçi uzay-zaman kodu tanıma algoritmaları öneriyoruz.

    Joint modulation classification and antenna number detection for MIMO systems
    (IEEE, 2016-01-07) Turan, Merve; Öner, Mustafa Mengüç; Çırpan, Hakan Ali
    Noncooperative classification of the modulation type of communication signals finds application in both civilian and military contexts. Existing modulation classification methods for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems commonly require a priori information on the number of transmit antennas employed by the multiantenna transmitter, which, in most of the noncooperative scenarios involving modulation classification, is unknown and needs to be blindly extracted from the received signal. Since the problems of MIMO modulation classification and detection of the number of transmit antennas are highly coupled, we propose a decision theoretic approach for spatial multiplexing MIMO systems that considers these two tasks as a joint multiple hypothesis testing problem. The proposed method exhibits a high performance even in moderate to low SNR regimes while requiring no a priori knowledge of the channel state information and the noise variance.

    A low complexity modulation classification algorithm for MIMO systems
    (IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2013-10) Mühlhaus, Michael S.; Öner, Mustafa Mengüç; Dobre, Octavia Adina; Jondral, Friedrich K.
    A novel algorithm is proposed for automatic modulation classification in multiple-input multiple-output spatial multiplexing systems, which employs fourth-order cumulants of the estimated transmit signal streams as discriminating features and a likelihood ratio test (LRT) for decision making. The asymptotic likelihood function of the estimated feature vector is analytically derived and used with the LRT. Hence, the algorithm can be considered as asymptotically optimal for the employed feature vector when the channel matrix and noise variance are known. Both the case with perfect channel knowledge and the practically more relevant case with blind channel estimation are considered. The results show that the proposed algorithm provides a good classification performance while exhibiting a significantly lower computational complexity when compared with conventional algorithms.

    Joint space time block code and modulation classification for MIMO systems
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc, 2017-02) Bayer, Özgür; Öner, Mustafa Mengüç
    Non-cooperative identification of unknown communication signals is a popular research area with widespread civilian and military applications. Multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems employing multi-antenna transmission pose new challenges to signal identification systems, such as the classification of the employed space time block code (STBC) and modulation in the presence of the self-interference inherent to the multi-antenna transmission. In the existing literature, these two classification problems have been handled separately, despite the fact that they are interrelated. This letter presents a novel approach to MIMO signal identification by considering the modulation type and the STBC classification tasks as a joint classification problem.

    Space time block code classification for MIMO signals exploiting cyclostationarity
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc, 2015) Turan, Merve; Öner, Mustafa Mengüç; Çırpan, Hakan Ali
    Blind and noncooperative identification of the transmission parameters of unknown communication signals has been employed both in military and civilian applications. Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) transmission systems emerging in the last decade pose new challenges to the signal identification systems, one of which is the identification of the Space-Time Block Code (STBC) used in the transmission. In this work, we present a novel STBC classification algorithm that exploits the joint wide sense cyclostationary characteristics of the coded transmit signals as discriminating features. Compared to existing algorithms, the proposed method can discriminate between a large number of different STBCs.

    Cyclostationarity based blind block timing estimation for alamouti coded MIMO signals
    (IEEE, 2017-06) Gül, Serhat; Öner, Mustafa Mengüç; Çırpan, Hakan Ali
    Blind parameter estimation algorithms provide a powerful tool for application scenarios where the use of training or pilot sequences is not desirable, e.g., in order to improve the bandwidth efficiency of the transmission, or in noncooperative scenarios where such sequences are not available to the receiver. This letter proposes a blind block timing estimation algorithm for Alamouti space-time block coded signals exploiting the second order joint cyclostationary characteristics of the received signal vector, which is induced by the space time block coding operation performed by the transmitter. The proposed algorithm outperforms the existing algorithms by a wide margin.
