Information on Spot Jamming

Spot jamming aims to concentrate the maximum amount of jammer power into the bandwidth of an individual radar system. Electronic support (ES) efforts provide the electronic attack (EA) system with operating frequency and bandwidth information, and the jammer then tunes (either manually or automatically) to centre on the operating frequency of the radar and spread its power over the same bandwidth as the radar receiver. In reality, the jammer always uses a slightly wider bandwidth than the radar receiver to ensure that frequency wander of either radar and/or jammer is accounted for.
