Abstract:A modulation recognition algorithm based on Foster incremental learning is proposed to address the challenge of dynamically emerging novel modulation signals in communication sc-enarios.The algorithm employs a Deep Residual Shrinkage Network incorporating a channelshared threshold mechanism.This mechanism leverages adaptive soft-thresholding to simultaneously suppress noise and extract discriminative features.Furthermore,the framework integrates a dualphase learni-ng paradigm to dynamically incorporate new modules,thereby accommodating novel modulation categories.A dedicated residual fitting module scales the network capacity dynamically to adapt to em-erging modulation types.To mitigate the issue of exponential parameter explosion during training,a knowledge distillation strategy is adopted.This strategy reduces feature dimensionality and prunes redundant parameters while preserving the core architecture of the model backbone. The experime-ntal results demonstrate that this method achieves superior performance compared to other increme-ntal learning algorithms.It can effectively address automatic modulation recognition in dynamic env-ironments and shows significant application potential.
