GPS Insurance: Antijamming the System Don Herskovitz The Global Positioning System (GPS) has become increasingly relied upon by the military for a number of critical applications from navigation to the delivery of precision weapons. Like any other radio-frequency system, though, GPS is not invulnerable to jamming. JED looks at ways to protect GPS from jamming. ON THE COVER: GPS jamming could have dire consequences for both the military and civilian sectors. (Cover by R. A. Pike) AH-1Z,
UH-1Y EW Upgrades Detailed Designer Polarization for EW Antennas Robert O. Magatagan Historically, EW systems have employed cavity-backed spiral antennas, but these were unable to meet the challenges posed by arbitrarily polarized, hostile signals. JED showcases one antenna design that can meet such challenges: the dual-polarized sinuous antenna.
Protecting the Big Boys: Directed IR Countermeasures for Large Aircraft They're big, slow and fly low. Large aircraft like the C-130, C-17 and C-160 present easy targets to IR-guided surface-to-air missiles. JED examines some of the directed-IR-countermeasures programs currently underway to help protect these work horses of today's air forces from the increasingly sophisticated and highly proliferated IR-missile threat.
Don Herskovitz Signals-intelligence (SIGINT) systems now employ a range of new approaches to detect and intercept battlefield radar and communications. JED profiles these intelligence systems provide information vital to the warfighter. Miss last months issue_ |
