A radar jammer is a type of jammer
designed specifically designed to jam radar receivers. A radar jammer may aim simply to swamp the radar receiver
to prevent it from receiving the returns from targets. Alternatively,
a more sophisticated radar jammer may attempt to
transmit a signal that will cause false targets to be
detected by the radar.
Jamming techniques commonly employed by a radar
jammer include:
a spot jamming
barrage jamming, and
sweep jamming.
A radar
jammer may also be used to jam police
radar. The use of such devices is illegal in many
places; even possession is sometimes illegal.
