Abstract
This article presents a survey on radar jamming and anti-jamming techniques. With the improvement of modern warfare technologies, electronic warfare faces increasingly challenging occurrences. Radar plays a crucial role in electronic warfare and is utilized in various applications such as air traffic control, aircraft anti-collision systems, and radar antimissile systems. However, radar systems are susceptible to electronic countermeasures, particularly jamming devices. Jammers emit jam signals to disrupt and deceive radar systems. This article explores the concept of radar jamming, including its working principles and techniques. It also highlights the importance of anti-jamming technologies to protect radar systems. The importance of understanding the environment and the capabilities of jammers has been emphasized to develop secure and effective anti-jamming systems. The study emphasizes the interplay between jamming and anti-jamming techniques, with advancements in one driving the development of the other. The paper concludes by providing an overview of the discussed topics and their significance in the field of radar technology.
