This paper proposes a lightweight recognition method based on visual object detection to address the problem of high recognition accuracy and low model complexity in current deep learning based automatic modulation recognition models. Firstly, the IQ signal is transformed into a time-frequency map using short-time Fourier transform, and preprocessed using a jigsaw puzzle to transform the modulation recognition task into a visual object detection problem.
