The Battle For The Electromagnetic Spectrum

Advances in commercial electronics are reshaping the electronic warfare (EW) arena. The commercial availability of advanced electronics is driving the proliferation of active, electronically scanned array (AESA) radars with digital architectures and agile waveforms that are harder to defeat, and digital radio-frequency memory (DRFM) devices that enable advanced countermeasures. The result is renewed Western investment in EW development to bring digital technology to all parts ...
