Research on the Effectiveness of Deep Convolutional Neural Network for Electromagnetic Interference Identification Based on I/Q Data.

With the development of wireless communication technology, the electromagnetic interference (EMI) of artificial radio to weather radar increases significantly, which has a serious impact on the quality of radar data. Most of the research on detecting and suppressing electromagnetic interference was based on the primary product of the radar. This paper researches the effectiveness of deep convolutional neural networks (DCNN) to identify and suppress electromagnetic interference based on the I/Q data output from the front end of a radar receiver. Firstly, this paper selected UNet, ResNet with UNet structure, and DeepLab V3+ for the semantic segmentation of electromagnetic interference and other signals. After semantic segmentation, this paper used the linear interpolation method to suppress EMI. Finally, this paper selected the prediction precision of the model and compared the quality of primary products before and after EMI suppression to evaluate the effectiveness of DCNN. The results showed that all three models could effectively identify the electromagnetic interference and the quality of the data were improved after suppression. It suggests that the use of DCNN on the I/Q data output from the front end of a radar receiver can play a certain effect on the identification of electromagnetic interference. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
