Mobile Tactical HF/VHF/EW System for Ground Forces

Abstract

This thesis specifies a mobile tactical C3CM system covering the HF/ VHF frequencies for use by ground forces. Description and analysis of a system that can intercept, analyze, DF, monitor and, if necessary, jam the frequency bands of interest are presented. The system analysis and possibilities of ESM/ ECM are considered in order to construct the overall theory of countering enemy communications from a tactical point of view. General system requirements, i.e., tactical, environmental, and human factors are also discussed. The concept of a mobile tactical HF/VHF system is described from performance and functional points of view. Finally, a desired specification outline maximizing use of off- the-shelf available components is presented. A summary and future projections are also provided. Keywords: Direction finding; Radio jamming; Electronic support measures; Radio countermeasures; Radio transmitters; Tactical mobile systems; Electronic warfare; Counter-communications jammers.
