Abstract
The invention includes, in its various aspects and embodiments, a method and apparatus for detecting cross-eye jamming. In some embodiments, the invention includes mitigating cross-eye jamming once its presence is detected.
Claims37
A method, comprising determining whether a received reflected sum RADAR signal evidences the effects of cross-eye jamming, wherein the method is performed in software executed by a processor, or in hardware, or in a combination of hardware and software executed by a processor.
A cross-eye jamming detector, comprising:
- a computing device;
- a bus system;
- a storage communicating with the computing device over the bus;
- a software application residing on the storage and, when executed by the computing device, determines whether a received reflected sum RADAR signal evidences the effects of cross-eye jamming.
A vehicle, comprising:
- a antenna capable of receiving a reflected sum RADAR signal;
- a cross-eye jamming apparatus that, in operation, scans the received signal for evidence of cross-eye jamming and, if detected, mitigates cross-eye jamming;
- and
- a guidance controller capable of guiding the vehicle.
An apparatus comprising a cross-eye jamming detector.
