    A Deep Learning-Based Adaptive Beamforming Method for Measured Shortwave Signals

    • 摘要: 短波通信因其不需要中继就能实现远距离通信且具有低成本、可靠性高等优点使其在各个领域得到广泛运用。然而,在进行远距离通信时,存在背景噪声、电磁干扰以及多径效应等因素的影响,导致接收信号质量下降,信噪比降低,通信性能受限。针对上述问题,本文提出一种结合深度学习技术的实测短波信号自适应波束形成(Measured Shortwave Signals Adaptive Beamforming,MSS-ABF)方法,旨在通过对阵列信号进行空间信号增强,重点解决传统波束形成中权重设计受限、非线性建模能力不足的问题。该方法采用端到端结构,引入时域卷积神经网络提升非线性处理能力,加入池化层并结合注意力机制来提高获取特征信息的能力,加快模型收敛速度,通过设计与输出信号信噪比成反比关系的自定义损失函数,将最大化信噪比问题转化为最小化问题,从而实现最优波束形成。经过仿真及实测数据实验结果表明,该方法能够有效提高阵列信号的SNR并对方向性干扰进行抑制,实线对阵列信号的自适应增强。

       

      Abstract: Shortwave communication has been widely applied in various fields due to its long-distance transmission capability without the need for relays, as well as its advantages of low cost and high reliability. However, in long-distance transmission scenarios, factors such as background noise, electromagnetic interference, and multipath effects significantly degrade the quality of the received signal, leading to reduced signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and limited communication performance. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a Measured Shortwave Signals Adaptive Beamforming (MSS-ABF) method based on deep learning, aiming to enhance spatial signal quality through adaptive processing of array signals. The proposed approach tackles the limitations of traditional beamforming techniques in weight vector design and nonlinear modeling capability.Specifically, the method adopts an end-to-end architecture integrating time-domain convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to improve nonlinear representation ability, incorporates pooling layers and attention mechanisms to enhance feature extraction and accelerate model convergence, and introduces a custom loss function inversely proportional to the output SNR, which transforms the original SNR maximization objective into a minimization task suitable for gradient-based optimization. Simulation and real-world shortwave signal experiments demonstrate that the proposed method significantly improves the SNR of array outputs and effectively suppresses directional interference, enabling adaptive enhancement of practical shortwave array signals.
