  2. Radio jamming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_jamming

    Radio jamming (or "comm jamming") is a common plot element in the Star Wars franchise. In Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi , when the Rebel fleet approaches the Galactic Empire's force, believing themselves to be launching a surprise attack, General Lando Calrissian realizes the Empire is jamming their signals, and therefore know they ...

  3. Mobile phone jammer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_phone_jammer

    Example of a mobile phone jammer, produced by Jammerspro. A mobile phone jammer or blocker is a device which deliberately transmits signals on the same radio frequencies as mobile phones, disrupting the communication between the phone and the cell-phone base station, effectively disabling mobile phones within the range of the jammer, preventing them from receiving signals and from transmitting ...

  4. GPS jamming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS_jamming

    GPS jamming is a particular type of GNSS interference. Under ITU rules, countries are obliged to eliminate harmful interference through GPS jamming and spoofing, but the ITU lacks effective enforcement measures. [2] The ICAO legal framework requires that countries should implement appropriate prevention and mitigation of GPS jamming and ...

  5. Radar jamming and deception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_jamming_and_deception

    The most important method to counter radar jammers is operator training. Any system can be fooled with a jamming signal but a properly trained operator pays attention to the raw video signal and can detect abnormal patterns on the radar screen. The best indicator of jamming effectiveness to the jammer is countermeasures taken by the operator.

    The jamming signal left behind subtle technical clues that were captured on a VHS recording made at the Playboy Channel's uplink at the time of the event – like finding "fingerprints" in the video. After investigators were confident that they identified the brand of transmitter and character generator from the video, they concluded that CBN ...

  9. Electronic countermeasure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_countermeasure

    Interference techniques include jamming and deception. Jamming is accomplished by a friendly platform transmitting signals on the radar frequency to produce a noise level sufficient to hide echos. [1] The jammer's continuous transmissions will provide a clear direction to the enemy radar, but no range information. [1]
