Recently, automatic modulation recognition (AMR), i.e., identifying the modulation modes of signals using deep learning (DL) has received much attention. This paper proposes an AMR method based on DL (i.e., SG-NET), including a novel DL architecture (i.e., GuResNet) based on the deep residual network (ResNet) and a SNR-aware mechanism, which can effectively extract signal characteristics to achieve a better recognition accuracy. Specifically, we design a deep residual network model that mainly consists of six novel Residual Units to abstract effective signal features and prevent over-fitting. Then, to further improve the recognition performance in low SNR scenarios (i.e., the SNR is lower than 0dB), we train different parameters in the GuResNets based on the aware SNR. That is, we firstly use original signals with high and low SNRs to train a general GusResNet. When SNR is larger than 0dB, we directly adopt the general GuResNet for AMR. While, in low SNR scenarios, we exploit the Legendre method to extract signal features and then re-train the parameters in the GuResNets under different SNR conditions to improve the recognition accuracy further. The simulations demonstrate that our proposed SG-NET can obtain nearly 30% accuracy gain when the SNR is lower than 0dB, and 10% improvement when SNR is larger than 0dB compared with existing schemes.
