Abstract An anti-frequency-offset algorithm is proposed by utilizing amplitude distribution feature for modulation recognition of conventional satellite modulations, such as QPSK, 16QAM and new modulations like 16APSK and 32APSK. The algorithm is based on adaptive construction of amplitude distribution template. After calculating the matching error between the amplitude distribution template and the actual amplitude distribution vector, the algorithm can recognize the modulation type by choosing the modulation type with the minimum matching error. This method does not need any prior knowledge about Carrier-to-Noise ratio (C/N), as well as threshold, and it is not sensitive to frequency offset. Becasuse of these advantages, the algorith is suitable for engineering application. Computer simulations show that the correct recognition probability is more than 98% when C/N is greater than 9 dB and 4000 symbols are used. It verifies the effectiveness of the algorithm.
