Abstract
Low power wide area networks support the success of long range Internet of things applications such as agriculture, security, smart cities and homes. This enormous popularity, however, breeds new challenging problems as the wireless spectrum gets saturated which increases the probability of collisions and performance degradation. To this end, smart spectrum decisions are needed and will be supported by wireless technology recognition to allow the networks to dynamically adapt to the ever changing environment where fair co-existence with other wireless technologies becomes essential. In contrast to existing research that assesses technology recognition using machine learning on powerful graphics processing units, this work aims to propose a deep learning solution using convolutional neural networks, cheap software defined radios and efficient embedded platforms such as NVIDIA’s Jetson Nano. More specifically, this paper presents low complexity near-real time multi-band sub-GHz technology recognition and supports a wide variety of technologies using multiple settings. Results show accuracies around 99%, which are comparable with state of the art solutions, while the classification time on a NVIDIA Jetson Nano remains small and offers real-time execution. These results will enable smart spectrum management without the need of expensive and high power consuming hardware.
