A Non-Uniform Interrupted-Sampling Repeater Jamming Method for Intra-Pulse Frequency Agile Radar

The existing research proposes an intra-pulse frequency agile radar waveform with "active" anti-jamming characteristics. It uses the discontinuity and periodicity of the interrupted-sampling repeater jamming and combines the anti-jamming algorithm to effectively suppress interrupted-sampling repeater jamming. In order to improve the jamming effectiveness of the interferer for the intra-pulse frequency agile waveform, this paper proposes to jam the intra-pulse frequency agile radar by using a non-uniform interrupted-sampling and forwarding method under parameter constraints. The proposed method first obtains the sub-pulse width of the intra-pulse frequency agile radar waveform by parameter estimation of the intercepted intra-pulse frequency agile radar signal through time-frequency ridge extraction and wavelet transform. Then, we construct non-uniform interrupted-sampling repeater jamming based on sub-pulse width constraint interference parameters. Theoretical analysis and results show that the non-uniform interrupted-sampling forwarding under parameter constraints makes it challenging to suppress interference in multiple domains, such as the time-frequency and pulse compression domain for intra-pulse frequency agile radar, which significantly improves the jamming capability of the jammer for intra-pulse frequency agile radar.
