A Novel Cognitive Jamming Architecture for Heterogeneous Cognitive Electronic Warfare Networks

In modern electromagnetic operational environment, various radar and/or communication emitters have become more and more intelligent and networked, which cause the jamming architecture of traditional electronic warfare system more inadequate, especially encountering unknown threat signals or networked operational objects. Furthermore, both sides of modern electronic warfare generally demand the output power of electromagnetic emitters stay as low as possible to prevent active leak, which further pose big challenge to jammers to seek more cognitive and distributed means of jamming. Therefore, this paper proposed a novel cognitive jamming architecture for heterogeneous cognitive electronic warfare networks to facilitate efficient electronic attacks. Game based approach has been utilized to facilitate the efficiency of jamming resources scheduling and strategy optimization in the case of multiple jammers attack multiple operational objects. The simulation results show the proposed novel cognitive jamming architecture for heterogeneous cognitive electronic warfare is feasible and effective.
