Signals Intelligence System with Software-Defined Radio

In this paper, we present the implementation of a system that identifies the modulation of complex radio signals. This is realized using an artificial intelligence model developed, trained, and integrated with Microsoft Azure cloud. We consider that cloud-based platforms offer enough flexibility and processing power to use them instead of conventional computers for signal processing based on artificial intelligence. We tested the implementation using a software-defined radio platform developed in GNU Radio that generates and receives real modulated signals. This process ensures that the solution proposed is viable to be used in real signal processing systems. The results obtained show that for certain modulation types, the identification is performed with a high degree of success. The use of a cloud-based platform allows quick access to the system. The user is able to identify the signal modulation using only a laptop that has access to the internet.
