Abstract

This chapter discussed self-protection jamming and developed the fundamental on-board self-protection jamming equation. We examined noise (wideband random amplitude and phase) self-protection jamming, false target (radar-like waveform) self-protection jamming, and expendable self-protection jamming (passive and active), their effects on the radar, and the metrics used to describe their performance. We concluded by looking at other self-protection jamming techniques used to deceive target tracking radar systems. Of course, the radar community does not sit idly by while the EW community renders its radar system useless. Numerous EP techniques have been developed in an attempt to preserve the radar system's target detection, measurement, and tracking capability and performance in the presence of EA. EP techniques are discussed in detail in Chapter 12.
