Abstract :
Application of cooperative multiple sensors for distributed signal sensing and modulation classification offers significant improvement of classification performance, compared to using single sensor, especially in the presence of multipath fading. In this paper, several cooperative AMC schemes with hard and soft decision fusion were analyzed. Classification performances of cooperative AMC schemes are investigated and evaluated in terms of average probability of correct classification, through Monte-Carlo simulations.
