The following video explores the Doppler Phase Shift Enhanced Disturbance Filter, a sophisticated approach designed to improve radar accuracy and effectively detect jamming.

The Doppler Phase Shift Enhanced Disturbance Filter (EDF) is an advanced radar signal processing system designed to effectively handle jammed radar data. It utilizes sophisticated algorithms to distinguish genuine radar reflections from jamming signals, thereby enhancing the radar's ability to accurately detect and track targets even in hostile environments.

The Enhanced Kalman Disturbance Filter is a feature developed by SkyRadar. It is part of its training radar system, designed to detect and handle range deception data using the Kalman Filter and the most recent RGPO detection features. This block includes several sub-functions, each serving a specific purpose in the processing of incoming radar reflections to identify and manage potential range deceived targets.

This article introduces an enhanced radar filter designed for training, with features for detecting range deception, incorporating moving target detection and target association for improved accuracy.

In this article we show a video on RGPO-counter-measures enhanced by an MIT and by a Cluttermap in a comparison. We conducted the RGPO with SkySim and the Electronic Warfare extension. The electronic counter-countermeasures are part of the FreeScopes Library.

The RGPO Detection Block is an essential component of a radar system designed to detect and handle range deception data.

Range Deception is a relevant approach used by aircraft and drones to deceive the supervising radars.

In this sequel to our blog series on electronic warfare, we will explore the critical aspects of strategy and mission planning in the dynamic domain of electronic warfare. As we dive deeper into this topic, we aim to equip you with the knowledge necessary to understand how electronic warfare is applied in real-world scenarios to achieve strategic objectives.

Electronic attack (EA) include a set of actions aimed at diminishing the effectiveness of hostile military assets through electronic means. This dynamic approach involves targeting various enemy radars and communication systems. EA employs diverse methods, including jamming, chaff, flares, anti-radiation weapons, and high-power radiation.

Welcome to our blog series where we dive into the most important concepts and terminology of electronic warfare. Through a sequence of interconnected articles, we aim to equip you with the knowledge necessary to comprehend the fundamental principles and intricate systems of jamming and its association with electronic warfare. This blog series is directed to a diverse audience, ranging from beginners eager to explore this field to seasoned experts seeking further insights.

To detect and remove/suppress the fake targets (range decepted targets) we implemented an algorithm for reflection power tracking. This algorithm consists of a search window of 5 samples and a tracking algorithm which tracks the return of reflected power within the sliding window (read the introductory article for reflection power tracking)

This article introduces a "reflection power tracking", a statistical method to neutralize range deception. It shows a training implementation in FreeScopes.

Drones and military aircraft try to hide their real positions through deception jamming. The following videos show successful detection with pulse compression and alternatively pulse Doppler, and subsequent detection algorithms.

SkyRadar has been developing training radar solutions for military training applications since 2008. The solutions have been applied by and optimized with allied forces on 5 continents.This article give an executive overview.

In this video we show how a sequence of defense algorithms can defeat a range deception attack.

SkyRadar provides military universities and academies around the world, empowering the use of ECM and ECCM solutions.

This video describes how deception jammers lock on radars and then drag them away from the real target.

Typically, when sophisticated drones or warplanes approach in enemy territory, they cover their real location through a DRFM jammer. They are more intelligent and difficult to dismantle than the classical noise jamming.

This video shows SkySim's noise jamming features. It's the most common and most simply approach of jamming. It is also the easiest to detect and uncover.

This video describes the features of the technical radar simulator.

With ARESIA-OZOIR's active target and SkyRadar's NextGen 8 GHz Pulse radar we experiment on range deception and radar lock-in with a rotating radar.

ARESIA-OZOIR's active target is a convincing tool to train electronic warfare with SkyRadar's NextGen 8 GHz Pulse radar.

SkyRadar's FreeScopes module "Disturbance Filtering & Analysis I" provides two algorithms for barrage jamming detection.

The following video shows how to react on barrage jamming attacks. We generate the inputs with the SkySim Radar and Jamming Simulator.

This article looks at spot jamming and barrage jamming and describes how these jammers and electronic counter counter measurres are implemented in SkyRadar's  FreeScopes DSP environment.
