Barrage jamming spreads energy across a wide frequency range. Such a jamming of an attacked radar requires high power to achieve a continuous coverage of various frequencies. Given the jammer's fixed total radiation power, this technique lowers the radars general efficiency as it leads to a low power density. But this technique is efficient when attacking radars which can vary their frequencies or radars which operate with several frequencies concurrently.
The video above shows barrage jamming as generated in SkyRadar's DSP simulator. Alternatively, students might practice with SkyRadar's physical jammer.
A workaround to the barrage jammer's low efficiency is spot jamming. Spot jammers jam in a narrow band, hence with a higher power density. Consequently it can raise the jamming signal power over a narrower frequency spectrum.
An active target is a simple architecture to change the position of a target. It is equiped with
1) One antenna to detect the surveillance radar's pulses
2) An amplifier to enlarge the feedback amplitude.
3) One antenna to return the amplified signal back to the surveillance radar.
The delay of the deceived reflection signal is proportional to the length of the wires, connecting incoming and outgoing antennas with the amplifier.
This detect algorithm detects and eliminates deceived reflections. It can work with simulated and real signals.
The RGPO Detection Block is an essential component of a radar system designed to detect and handle range deception data.
This block includes several subfunctions, each serving a specific purpose in the processing of incoming radar reflections to identify and manage potential range-deceived targets. Read more.
The RGPO enhanced disturbance filter is an advancement as compared to the simple RGPO-based filter. It improved the functionality of the composite block by adding the MTI feature. Read more.
The composite block of clutter-map enhanced disturbance filtering makes use of clutter-map subtraction. In addition it includes automatic thresholding, the association of reflections into one object, the RGPO detection block, and velocity gating. Read more.
The MTD enhanced disturbance filter makes use of the Moving Target Detection Algorithm. It is similar to the Clutter-map enhanced filter, with an additional target association block. The MTD replaces the Clutter-map subtraction block. Read more.
The Kalman enhanced filter is the most complex in this package of composite filters. Kalman filters out non-predictive vlaues. In comparison to the previous fliter, it also includes a specific prediction block. Read more.
