TOMORROW: Register Now for the the AOC's Next Free Virtual Series Webinar on Cross-Eye Jamming

October 30, 2014 | 1400-1500 EDT (1800-1900 GMT)
Cross-eye jamming is an old idea with two U.S. patents being submitted in 1958, and the underlying concepts being described in essentially all introductory EW textbooks. However, it was not until 2000 that the existence of cross-eye jammers suitable for operational use was publicly announced. Perhaps more surprisingly, a number of academic papers by authors from around the world have recently been published on the topic of cross-eye jamming – a highly unusual situation for any EW technique, let alone one as old as cross-eye jamming.

But what is cross-eye jamming, and how does it work? More importantly, what is so special about cross-eye jamming that it still attracts significant interest almost 60 years after it was initially proposed? And why was there such a long delay between the formulation of the underlying concepts and their practical implementation? This webinar will seek to answer these and other questions about cross-eye jamming.

REGISTER NOW: 6th Annual EW Capability Gaps & Enabling Technologies Operational & Technical Information Exchange
November 18-21, 2014 | Crane, IN

The overall goal of the event is to provide a forum for EW professionals from the military, government, industry and academic fields to discuss issues related to the requirements of EW programs, platforms and operations. This capstone event will focus on the identified gaps and technologies the services require to ensure EW maintains freedom of maneuver through the Electromagnetic Spectrum (EMS) in support of achieving commanders' objectives. Speakers and presenters will look back at the previous few years and identify progress made to ensure the success of the warfighter in tomorrow's battlespace.

All sessions will be held at the Crane Lakeview Event Center at the U.S. SECRET and U.S. TS/SCI levels.

NEXT AOC VIRTUAL SERIES: Enabling Adaptive Electronic Countermeasures, November 20
Thursday, November 20, 2014 | 1400-1500 EST (1900-2000 GMT)

Survivability against future advanced threats is achievable through the effective use of new digital RF technology, modular architecture, and reprogrammability. Advancements in radar technology will result in radars which are able to perform real-time modifications to transmissions enabling adaptable waveforms. Traditionally employed electronic countermeasure systems leveraging a priori information will be obsolete as they will no longer be effective due to the threat's ability to employ rapid upgrades or adaptive waveforms in real-time. The next generation of electronic countermeasure systems will be required to find, identify, and appropriately respond to signals in the environment in real-time. The key to increasing the warfighter's survivability against hostile adaptive radars is the ability to adapt quickly through advanced algorithms on software intensive electronic countermeasure systems. This presentation focuses on an approach that leverages existing technology to enable adaptive electronic countermeasures.
