An introduction to High Power Radio Frequency/Microwave (HPM) Directed Energy Weapons (DEW) and their effects. The webinar will cover what HPM weapons are, the type of weapons – Narrowband and Wideband, how the weapons are like, but different from traditional Electronic Warfare (EW) and Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP), how the HPM energy couples in to a target’s electronics and their effects. We will also cover some of the basic modeli...

There is a growing need for electronic warfare (EW) systems to counter enemy radar systems more consistently with complex & innovative techniques to successfully prevent or deceive threats and improve survivability. However, modern radar systems can detect irregularities in programmed electronic attack (EA) techniques. Ensuring that EW systems can produce these techniques without exploitable irregularities demands thorough and accurate EW...

This presentation will cover the fundamental physics of pulse Doppler radar signals and processing, including the effects of phased array steering, aperture fill time, bandwidth, and noise. It will conclude with a discussion of noise and DRFM-based jamming techniques, with jamming to signal ratio (JSR) as the metric of effectiveness.

This brief will explore the potential benefits of using large language models (LLMs) for flight test data analysis. It will discuss how LLMs can be used to process and interpret the vast amount of information present in different types of flight test data, and how this can lead to more effective decision-making, improved safety assessments, and optimized aircraft performance. LLMs have the potential to revolutionize the field of flight test da...

When warfighters enter the battlefield, whether in the sky, on the ground or at sea, they depend on sophisticated radar and electronic attack jammer systems to protect them from harm. Advancements in digitizing technology and analysis software enable EW systems to undergo testing in the lab before they reach a real conflict. High-bandwidth oscilloscopes can be used for multi-port, coherent RF pulse analysis. With the combination of real-time d...

Everything goes wireless/RF, it is the matter of life for both commercial and military communication. Desired and undesired signals are on top of each other, whether it is intentional or unintentional, the effectiveness, integrity and security of the communications are at mercy how the spectrum is managed and operated. It is critically important that military communication networks can run on intended spectrum without interruption, system can...

The ground is a major consideration for most airborne systems, with uncontrolled interactions normally ending badly. Airborne radar is no exception, and the effects of ground clutter are arguably the major challenge facing airborne radars. Ground clutter is visible over a wide range of directions, appears at most ranges of interest, and is moving relative to the radar. To make matters worse, antenna characteristics along with range and Doppler...

This presentation will discuss the basic principles of an Integrated Air Defense System (IADS), and the basic characteristics of a radar-guided missile system. This will be an overview webinar, not a detailed discussion. You will leave the webinar with a basic understanding of how IADS and missile intercepts work from the short discussion of each of the following 8 topics: Target detection, resolution, and countermeasures (noise jamming) Varia...
