Method of Four-Element Retrodirective Cross-Eye Jamming Based on DoA

The cross-eye method is commonly used to interfere monopulse radars. To overcome the strict tolerance and the range limitation of the traditional retrodirective cross-eye method and the multi-loop method, a novel four-element retrodirective cross-eye based on Direction of Arrival (DoA) is proposed. The mathematical model of the four-element retrodirective cross-eye jamming is derived based on the method of expansibility analysis, and the general formulas of indication angle are obtained. Based on the DoA information, the antenna layout of jamming loops is optimized, and the influence of the modulation parameters on cross-eye jamming effect are analyzed. The orthogonal four-element retrodirective cross-eye is compared with the traditional cross eye jamming, the results show that the the proposed method is superior to the traditional and the orthogonal four-element retrodirective cross-eye in terms of the jamming effect and the modulation parameter tolerance.
