In this paper, we analyzed the tracking error for the monopulse radar by controlling the phase difference, amplitude ratio and engagement angle of the cross-eye jammer. Cross-eye jamming is an important jamming method for monopulse radars, which causes a displacement in the radar receiving antenna input and misleads the radar's tracking angle. As a result of analyzing the tracking distance error of the radar while changing the engagement angle between the monopulse radar and jammer, the maximum distance error occurs when the engagement angle is 0° and the phase difference is 180°. It was confirmed that the error decreased to 70% or less of the maximum distance error into 45°~135°. In order to increase the efficiency of jammers, it is necessary to study rotary jammers or multi-channel jammers. This study will be very useful for the design of cross-eye jammers for aircraft and ships.

In this paper, when two sets of cross-eye jammer antennas are installed vertically to jam a monopulse radar, the jamming effects according to the jammer's phase difference, amplitude ratio, and radar angle of engagement are analyzed. The phase difference and amplitude ratio of the cross-eye jammer can be adjusted in the jammer, but since the angle of engagement is relatively determined by the radar, it is very important to respond to changes in the angle of engagement. The orthogonally deployed jammer antennas can be considered as a good way to increase the jamming effect while minimizing the hardware configuration, and the jamming effect is analyzed while changing the angle of inclination from 0° to 360°. This jammer greatly improves the jamming effects at the angles of incidence 45°~135° and 225°~315°, compared to a single jammer. And it is expected to be useful in the design of cross-eye jammers for military aircraft and ships.

In this paper, the tracking error of monopulse radar caused by cross-eye jamming using terrain bounce is analyzed. Cross-eye jamming is a method of generating an error in a radar tracking system by simultaneously transmitting two signals with different phases and amplitudes. When the monopulse radar receives the cross-eye jamming signal generated by the terrain bounce, a tracking error occurs in the elevation direction. In the presence of multipath, this signal is a combination of the direct target return and a return seemingly emanating from the target image beneath the terrain surface. Terrain bounce jamming has the advantage of using a single jammer, but the space affecting the jamming is limited by the terrain reflection angle and the degree of scattering of the terrain. This study can be usefully used to protect ships from low-altitude missiles or aircraft in the sea.

In this paper, we analyze the tracking errors of monopulse radar according to the JSR of retrodirective cross-eye and radar skin return signals. The cross-eye jammer gain(G_c) is used to calculate the radar tracking errors, and the relationship between the jammer gain and the JSR is represented mathematically. We analyze the radar tracking errors by varying the tracking angle and JSR. Analysis results of the phase difference(ϕ) and amplitude ratio(a) between the two jammer signals and the changing JSR show that the closer the phase difference of the two jammer signals is to 180, the greater the tracking error and it shows that if the JSR is above 20dB, the tracking errors no longer increase. This work presents an effective utilization of retrodirective cross-eye jammers through various tracking error analyses based on the JSR, tracking angles, two-jammer phase differences and amplitude ratios of two-jammer signals.

A monopulse sensor is used to estimate the angle of a target with respect to each received single pulse. It is well known that the cross-eye technique can result in an angle deception effect against monopulse sensors. To verify this effect, we propose a test environment configuration for the angle deception using monopulse receiving antennae and cross-eye transmitters in an anechoic chamber. Using the proposed test environment configuration, we have measured powers of the sum and difference of the signals received by the monopulse receiving antennae when the distance of the two cross-eye transmitters is varied. Finally, the angle deception performance related to the powers of the sum and difference signals was analyzed.

One of the effective methods for angular deception against monopulse radar is a cross eye technique. The typical cross eye technique can cause significant angular errors to monopulse radar by using two transceivers which transmit the signals with opposite phases. However, typical cross eye systems have high complexity of implementation because two transceivers should be installed with enough distance on the platform. In this paper, we propose a new cross eye technique with single transceiver based on the multipath effect. Then, angular deception performance of the proposed technique is analyzed.

This study proposes a novel structure for the cross-eye, one of the representative jamming techniques of monopulse sensors. The proposed jammer tranceivers are composed of multi-channels with phased array antenna. We named this structure PRCJ(Phased array Retrodicetive Cross-eye Jammer). In this structure, formulas for calculating cross-eye gain and distance error are derived. We compare the properties of PRCJ with two-element retrodiredtive cross-eye jammer(TRCJ). PRCJ can achieve higher J/S because this structure can steer the spatially combined jamming signal in the direction of the incident monopulse signal. Because of the multiple channels in the phased array, it also increases the degree of freedom of channel matching. Finally, We preform a statistical analysis of the cross-eye gain according to the amplitude and phase errors. From this results, It has been found that PRCJ can get higher cross-eye gain than TRCJ.

Cross eye technique was proposed as an angle deception jamming technique against monopulse radars. Tracking radars use monopulse or conical scan methods for angle estimation of a target. Thus, if we verify deception performance of cross eye technique against a conical scan radar, efficient jamming systems can be developed to disturb both monopulse radars and conical scan radars. In this paper, we propose a mathematical model for a conical scan radar and a cross eye system. Using the proposed model, angular deception performance of the cross eye technique against conical scan radar is analyzed.

One of the effective jamming methods to disturb monopulse radars is a wavefront distortion. Most well-known wavefront distortion is the cross eye technique which uses two transmitters. The cross eye can make angle error regardless of monopulse radar structure but high accuracies of phase and amplitude between two transmitters should be needed to make large angle error. Thus, the accuracies of phase and amplitude are essentially required performance parameters for implementation of wavefront distortion systems and the required values of accuracy is dependant on amount of angle error. In this paper, we derive expressions for minimum required values of phase difference and amplitude ratio according to amount of angle error and analyze the results.
