Abstract
A defense system that receives information regarding an incoming object(s), then automatically coordinates spoofing or jamming of SATNAV signals potentially used by the incoming object(s) while also informing friendly systems of the spoofing or jamming of SATNAV signal.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a processor to:
- receive information via a communication interface, wherein the information comprises data regarding an incoming object;
- processing the received information;
- and
- based on the processing of the received information, send a command that is usable to facilitate an emission of jamming signals by one or more antennas to disrupt a satellite navigation signal potentially received by the incoming object.
2 more elements
A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a jamming control system, information via a communication interface, wherein the information comprises data regarding an incoming object;
- based on the received information, selecting, by the jamming control system, a mode of operation related to emission of one or more jamming signals;
- and
- sending, by the jamming control system, a command that is usable to facilitate emission of the one or more jamming signals by one or more antennas to disrupt a satellite navigation signal potentially received by the incoming object, in accordance with the mode of operation selected.
1 more element
A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a jamming control system, information via a wireless communication interface, wherein the information comprises data regarding an incoming object;
- processing, by the jamming control system, the information received,
- based on the information, selecting, by the jamming control system, a directional operational mode related to a first jamming signal emission;
- sending, by the jamming control system, a first command that is usable to facilitate emitting the first jamming signal emission by an antenna to disrupt a satellite navigation signal potentially received by the incoming object, in accordance with the directional operational mode;
- based on further information received from the incoming object detector, wherein the further information indicates a plurality of incoming objects, selecting, by the jamming control system, an omnidirectional operational mode relating to a second jamming signal emission;
- and
- sending, by jamming control system, a second command that is usable to facilitate emitting the second jamming signal emission by the antenna to disrupt satellite navigation signals potentially received by the incoming objects, in accordance with the omnidirectional operational mode.
