Over the Air Deep Learning Based Radio Signal Classification
  We conduct an in depth study on the performance of deep learning based radio
signal classification for radio communications signals. We consider a rigorous
baseline method using higher order moments and strong boosted gradient tree
classification and compare performance between the two approaches across a
range of configurations and channel impairments. We consider the effects of
carrier frequency offset, symbol rate, and multi-path fading in simulation and
conduct over-the-air measurement of radio classification performance in the lab
using software radios and compare performance and training strategies for both.
Finally we conclude with a discussion of remaining problems, and design
considerations for using such techniques.
