Abstract

The simultaneous use of multiple retrodirective cross-eye jammers is analysed for both the case where the jammer loops point in different directions and when they point in the same direction. In both cases, the use of multiple cross-eye jammer loops is shown to lead to significantly increased angular errors in the threat radar under certain conditions. Alternatively, the sum-channel return can be increased to reduce the jammer-to-signal ratio (JSR) requirements for each jammer loop.
