Abstract

To counter threats to low-orbit communication satellites from hacker attacks and spectrum interference, this study develops an adversarial sample detection model using a variational self-encoder and a fast region-based convolutional network for spectrum interference detection. The proposed model achieves 97.68% accuracy and an F1 score of 96.86% in intrusion traffic detection, with AUC values above 95% for various network attacks. For single-tone interference, it attains 98.65% accuracy, 96.21% recall, and 93.14% precision, converging within 200 iterations with an average recognition accuracy of 95.47%. These results confirm the model’s ability to detect adversarial threats and interference, enhancing satellite communication security.
