ELECTRONIC WARFARE
EM jamming is the intentional radiation, reradiation, or reflection of EM energy for the purpose of preventing or reducing an opponent’s effective use of the EMS, with the intent of degrading or neutralizing the opponent’s actions.
INTENTIONAL RADIATION JAMMING
Involves systems that radiate electromagnetic energy.
RERADIATION JAMMING
Involves systems that receive and retransmit an altered or altogether different threat signal to deceive the hostile forces.
REFLECTION OR MECHANICAL JAMMING
Does not emit a signal but rather reflects signals to produce false target indications.
Intentional jamming with radio signals is equivalent to a denial of service attack.In past, EM jamming was mostly related to strategical operations of Armed forces with goal to prevent the hostile forces to effectively use EMS in operations.
Nowadays, following rapid technical development, EM Jamming become mainly part of tactical operations, used by tactical units (armed, police or governmental forces) with aim to disable hostile groups/ units to use EMS in order to achieve remote actions (RCIED trigger, Drone attack, unwanted communication links for example in prisons etc.).
Tactical Jamming is widely in use by all Government forces with purpose of protection from all kinds of threats, exiting in modern tactical warfare and terrorist actions. Today’s jamming systems are often named and classified according to their fields of application: Convoy Protection Jammer, RCIED Jammer, Conference Room Jammer, Drone Jammer, Cellular Jammer depending on targeted threat.
All modern jammers should contain the feature to be freely and precisely programmable so that they don’t interfere with other communication
