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.

In this paper we present the symbol and bit error rate performance of the weak signal digital communications system. We investigate orthogonal multiple frequency shift keying modulation scheme with supervised machine learning demodulation approach using simple dense end-to-end artificial neural network. We focus on the interference immunity over an additive white Gaussian noise with average signal-to-noise ratios from -20 dB to 0 dB.
