Abstract

AI performance in wireless systems is limited by data scarcity and dynamic channel conditions. This paper introduces Modulation-Aware GANs (MA-GANs), a framework that synthesizes wireless signals by embedding modulation-specific constraints and modeling stochastic channel effects like Rayleigh fading and phase noise. Our design integrates domain-informed layers such as differentiable pulse shaping and spectral normalization to ensure physical-layer realism. We propose a hybrid training strategy that combines synthetic pre-training with minimal real-data fine-tuning, evaluated using wireless-centric metrics: Modulation Fidelity Score (MFS) and Spectral Compliance Index (SCI). MA-GAN narrows the sim-to-real gap to 1.8%, reduces EVM by 4.1×, and maintains BER below 10−3 under dynamic conditions. With only 20% real data, it outperforms fully real-data-trained baselines by 1.6%, cutting data costs by 80%. This work enables reliable AI-driven wireless systems for 5G, 6G, and IoT applications.
