Abstract: Various schemes for mitigating radio frequency (RF) interference are described, wherein an adaptive local oscillator (LO) is utilized. A receiver measures a jamming indicator which indicates a total power within a receiving band of the receiver. If the jamming indicator indicates a presence of substantial in-band interference, the receiver may program the LO to a different frequency and/or adjust a bandwidth of a filter accordingly to reject or reduce the interference. The receiver may adjust the LO and/or the filter repeatedly until the interference is rejected to a point that de-sense to the signal intended to be received is satisfactorily mitigated. The receiver may restore the LO and the filter to a default setting when the jamming indicator indicates that the interference is no longer present.

Abstract: A joint link-level and network-level intelligent system and method for dynamic spectrum anti-jamming are provided. The system includes a link-level anti-jamming subsystem and a network-level anti-jamming subsystem.

Abstract: A system and method for frequency offset determination in a MANET via Doppler nulling techniques is disclosed. In embodiments, a receiving (Rx) node of the network monitors a transmitting (Tx) node of the network, which scans through a range or set of Doppler nulling angles adjusting its transmitting frequency to resolve Doppler frequency offset at each angle, the Doppler frequency shift resulting from the motion of the Tx node relative to the Rx node. The Rx node detects the net frequency shift at each nulling direction and can thereby determine frequency shift points (FSP) indicative of the relative velocity vector between the Tx and Rx nodes. If the set of Doppler nulling angles is known to it, the Rx node can determine frequency shift profiles based on the FSPs, and derive therefrom the relative velocity and angular direction of motion between the Tx and Rx nodes.
