  • Patent number: 11630996
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for training and deploying machine-learned classification of radio frequency (RF) signals. One of the methods includes obtaining input data corresponding to the RF spectrum; segmenting the input data into one or more samples; and for each sample of the one or more samples: obtaining information included in the sample, comparing the information to one or more labeled signal classes that are known to the machine-learning network, using results of the comparison, determining whether the information corresponds to the one or more labeled signal classes, and in response, matching, using an identification policy of a plurality of policies available to the machine-learning network, the information to a class of the one or more labeled signal classes, and providing an output that identifies an information signal corresponding to the class matching the information obtained from the sample.

  • Publication number: 20220264328
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media for characterizing radio propagation channels. One method includes receiving, at a first modem, a first unit of communication over a radio frequency (RF) communication path from a second modem, wherein the first modem and the second modem process information for RF communications. The first modem identifies fields in the first unit of communication, the fields used to analyze the RF communication path. The first modem extracts data from the fields. The first modem accesses a channel model for approximating a channel representative of the RF communication path from the first modem to the second modem, wherein the channel model includes machine learning models. The first modem trains the channel model using the extracted data. The first modem applies the trained channel model to simulate a set of channel effects associated with the communication path.

  • Publication number: 20220174634
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for training and deploying machine-learned communication over RF channels. In some implementations, information is obtained. An encoder network is used to process the information and generate a first RF signal. The first RF signal is transmitted through a first channel. A second RF signal is determined that represents the first RF signal having been altered by transmission through the first channel. Transmission of the first RF signal is simulated over a second channel implementing a machine-learning network, the second channel representing a model of the first channel. A simulated RF signal that represents the first RF signal having been altered by simulated transmission through the second channel is determined. A measure of distance between the second RF signal and the simulated RF signal is calculated. The machine-learning network is updated using the measure of distance.

  • Publication number: 20200257985
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-storage media, for adversarially generated communication. In some implementations, first information is used as input for a generator machine-learning network. Information is taken from both the generator machine-learning network and target information that includes sample signals or other data. The information is sent to a discriminator machine-learning network which produces decision information including whether the information originated from the generator machine-learning network or the target information. An optimizer takes the decision information and performs one or more iterative optimization techniques which help determine updates to the generator machine-learning network or the discriminator machine-learning network.

  • Publication number: 20200143279
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for radio frequency band segmentation, signal detection and labelling using machine learning. In some implementations, a sample of electromagnetic energy processed by one or more radio frequency (RF) communication receivers is received from the one or more receivers. The sample of electromagnetic energy is examined to detect one or more RF signals present in the sample. In response to detecting one or more RF signals present in the sample, the one or more RF signals are extracted from the sample, and time and frequency bounds are estimated for each of the one or more RF signals. For each of the one or more RF signals, at least one of a type of a signal present, or a likelihood of signal being present, in the sample is classified.
