Abstract:

When the deception jamming is implemented on synthetic aperture radar (SAR), the jammer usually needs to obtain some key parameters in advance, such as the speed of carrier platform of SAR, the slow time of azimuth, the nearest oblique distance from the jammer to the carrier platform of SAR, and the self-position of the jammer, etc. However, the acquisition of these key parameters above usually needs complex reconnaissance equipments. In response to this problem, a passive direction-finding and SAR deception jamming method based on multi-receiver coondination is proposed in this paper. This method uses the arrangement of jammers and receivers and the time difference of arrival (TDOA) information between the receivers, and effectively solves the problem of the requirement for complex equipment to reconnoitre the above key parameters, and greatly simplifies the configuration of the interference system. According to the TDOA information, the pitch angle and horizontal azimuth of jammer relative to the carrier platform of SAR can be calculated, so as to realize the passive direction-finding of carrier platform of SAR. On this basis, a deception jamming algorithm against SAR is proposed and compared with the existing deception jamming algorithm against SAR based on multi-receiver coondination. The result shows that, with the increase of distance between the generated false target and the jammer, the false target focusing effect and real-time performance of the proposed method are better than that of the existing methods.

Key words: synthetic aperture radar (SAR), deception jamming, time difference of arrival (TDOA), minimum condition number, passive direction-finding
