A Wideband Signal Recognition Dataset.

Signal recognition is a spectrum sensing problem that jointly requires detection, localization in time and frequency, and classification. This is a step beyond most spectrum sensing work which involves signal detection to estimate "present" or "not present" detections for either a single channel or fixed sized channels or classification which assumes a signal is present. We define the signal recognition task, present the metrics of precision and recall to the RF domain, and review recent machine-learning based approaches to this problem. We introduce a new dataset that is useful for training neural networks to perform these tasks and show a training framework to train wideband signal recognizers.
