INNOVATIVE ELECTROMAGNETIC PROTECTION TECHNIQUES AGAINST ADVANCED JAMMING WAVEFORM THREATS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
In this thesis, we develop electromagnetic protection (EP) receiver techniques to mitigate the false alarm probability and detection effects generated by transmit waveform shaped noise jammers (TWS-NJs) and deceptive coherent jammers (CJs).

Two-dimensional deceptive jamming mitigation algorithm for SAR imaging using frequency diverse array

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2019
The synthetic aperture radar (SAR) may be threatened greatly by the deceptive jamming within its main-lobe. To tackle this problem, a two-dimensional self-adaptive frequency diverse array (FDA)-based SAR processing scheme is proposed in this study ...

A suppression method against range deception jamming based on homologous localisation test

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2019
In this article, an anti‐jamming technique based on homologous localisation test in multi‐static radar system is proposed to counter multi‐range‐false‐target deception jamming. At first, pre‐process is implemented in each receiver to group the targets that locate in the same direction and improve the accuracy of angle measurement.
