Abstract: | Bi- and multistatic synthetic aperture radars (SARs) can achieve reduced vulnerability in military systems, especially in directional responsive jamming, and avoid physical attack to radar platforms. In this letter, a technique for jamming bi- and multistatic SAR systems is proposed, which is implemented with a novel transponder. This technique is based on a delayed retransmission of the received radar signal toward the scene. Unlike conventional delayed jamming, here, the jammer's delay time is random in the whole range interval. Moreover, the jamming signal is not retransmitted to the receiver directly but to the areas with targets that need to be protected against being imaged by radar. By this, it is then possible to jam the radar echoes independent of the receiver location |
