摘要:
A system is provided that has an ECM (electronic counter measures) system and a transponder monitor connected to or forming part of the ECM system. The system monitors for a transponder signal from a remote transponder. The system determines information, such as transponder location, based on the transponder signal and makes use of the information in the ECM system and/or the system extracts encoded information contained in the transponder signal, such as information about a transponder owner, such as status of consumables, medical status. The ECM system may have a reactive jammer that is used both for a reactive jamming function, and as the transponder monitor function.
摘要:
A device and method for estimating the operational effectiveness, status, and protection range of an electronic countermeasures system in real time or near real time are provided. The device and method calculate a predicted ECM power at a given location using a propagation and scenario model. Then a measured ECM power at the given location is used to determine a correction value equal to the difference between the calculated and measured ECM powers. The correction value and the propagation model are then used with a heuristic method to refine estimates of propagation and scenario parameters. The refined parameter set is used to produce a refined prediction of ECM power, which is used to create a refined correction factor. The refined correction factor is used to determine predicted ECM powers at a plurality of locations in an area around the device to determine a boundary of protection.
