Abstract

Systems and methods for autonomous signal modulation format identification are disclosed. In an example embodiment of the disclosed technology, a method includes mapping an input signal to Stokes space to generate a representation of the input signal in three-dimensional space. The method may further include determining the dimension of the representation and, based on the dimension, selecting a subset of modulation from a plurality of mutually exclusive subsets of modulation formats. Further, the method may include defining a cost function for identifying the modulation format from the selected subset and evaluating the cost function to identify the modulation format.
