In this paper we proposed the use of JT65A radio communication protocol for data exchange in wide-area monitoring systems in electric power systems. We investigated the software demodulation of the multiple frequency shift keying weak signals transmitted with JT65A communication protocol using deep convolutional neural network. We presented the demodulation performance in form of symbol and bit error rates. We focused on the interference immunity of the protocol over an additive white Gaussian noise with average signal-to-noise ratios in the range from -30 dB to 0 dB, which was obtained for the first time. We proved that the interference immunity is about 1.5 dB less than the theoretical limit of non-coherent demodulation of orthogonal MFSK signals.

Kozlenko, M.I. (2012), "Frequency resource using of the spread spectrum signals forming in the distributed computer and telecommunication systems", Kozlenko, M.I. (2012), "Time complexity of the variable entropy spread spectrum signals digital demodulation", To obtain the interference immunity of the data exchange by spread spectrum signals with variable entropy of the telemetric information data exchange with autonomous mobile robots. The results have been obtained by the theoretical investigations and have been confirmed by the modeling experiments. The interference immunity in form of dependence of bit error probability on normalized signal/noise ratio of the data exchange by spread spectrum signals with variable entropy has been obtained. It has been proved that the interference immunity fa ctor (needed normalized signal/noise ratio) is at least 2 dB better under condition of equal time complexity as compared with correlation processing methods of orthogonal signals. For the first time the interference immunity in form of dependence of bit error probability on normalized signal/noise ratio of the data exchange by spread spectrum signals with variable entropy has been obtained.
