Summary of Jamming techniques
| Technique | Pros | Cons | Related Works |
|---|---|---|---|
| Noise | Applied to a small portion of the spectrum with required power | Requires too much power to be effective | [112] |
| Is the simplest form of jamming | No dynamic analysis of signal, hence can be easily mitigated | ||
| Effective against localisation radars used by UAVs such as SAR | |||
| Tone | Applied to a single or multiple tones | Performance depends on placement of tones | [113] |
| Provides fine control | Performs poorly against FHSS systems | ||
| Swept | Covers a wide spectrum with less power | As both the jamming and signal tones keep changing in case of FHSS, performance can be unreliable | [114], [115] |
| Effective against DSSS | Mitigation strategies are already being developed | ||
| Follower | Effective against FHSS | Analysis of entire spectrum takes additional resources | [116] |
| Smart | Power efficient and effective | Prior knowledge about target signal is needed | [117] |
| Is most reliable compared to other methods against FHSS and DSS | Analysis needs to done by technologies such as SDR |
