  • Patent number: 6748351
    Abstract: An apparatus for electronic warfare signal simulation which is used in an external test system to simultaneously test a plurality of “victim” communication systems for vulnerability to jamming. The test system includes a remote radiator of a signal free of jamming effects, and a remote radiator of one or more radio frequency control signals which represent one or more predetermined jamming threats in the low and mid bands.

  • Patent number: 5886626
    Abstract: A system is tested for jamming resistance by supplying a simulated jamming ignal. The simulated jamming signal is produced by calculating a propagation path loss in the terrain between the system under test and a location where the jammer would be, predicting a jamming level in accordance with the propagation path loss, and generating a simulated jamming signal. The simulated jamming signal is supplied to the antenna port of the system under test. The testing does not require the use of either a real jammer or a pilot signal generator at the location where the jammer would be.
