Analysis on the angular jamming effects of electronically controlled
corner reflectors towing after a maneuver aircraft
Abstract
In this letter, the angular jamming effect of electronically controlled
corner reflectors after a maneuver aircraft is analyzed. Motion
characteristics of the corner reflectors towed by a high-speed aircraft
are calculated through the Lagrange theory, and the angle measurement
error of the jamming method for the monopulse angle measurement
algorithm is analyzed based on the motion states and the electromagnetic
states (scattering or penetration) of the corner reflectors. Results
show that the measured angle by a monopulse radar seeker can be
effectively interfered by this method under complex maneuver motion
while the automatic tracking is employed.
