Effectiveness of External Noise Jamming in Missile Borne Monopulse Radar Receivers

Broadband Repeat Jamming of Monopulse Receivers in Missile Borne Tracking Radar

Jamming of radar guided missile receivers are extremely difficult as the frequency lock and the servo lock requires no deviations in the repeater waveform of the jammer and its frequency. Broadband repeat jamming of such missile radar receiver is illustrated in this paper for effective deception in the presence of FM CW (Continuous Wave) interference signal. The modulation index of the FM jamme...

Estimation of Break-Lock Conditions for Effective Jamming in Missile Borne Monopulse Receivers

–Missile borne Monopulse receivers invariably track the target in three domains, namely frequency, range and angle. For effective jamming of these receivers, it is essential that breaking of the track should be achieved in at least two domains. In frequency domain, so long as the monopulse receiver locks onto the radar echo frequency, the radar tracks the target. When there is a disturbance int...

Random Noise Monopulse Radar System for Covert Tracking of Targets

The University of Nebraska is currently developing a unique monopulse radar concept based on the use of random noise signal for covert tracking applications. This project is funded by the Missile Defense Agency (MDA). The advantage of this system over conventional frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) or short pulse systems is its covertness resulting from the random waveform’s immunity fr...

Error Analysis of a Digital Monopulse Radar

Robust adaptive beamforming for MIMO monopulse radar

Researchers have recently proposed a widely separated multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar using monopulse angle estimation techniques for target tracking. The widely separated antennas provide improved tracking performance by mitigating complex target radar cross-section fades and angle scintillation. An adaptive array is necessary in this paradigm because the direct path from any trans...
