Research on deception jamming of chaotic composite short-range detection system based on bispectral analysis and genetic algorithm–back propagation by Dongxu Wei, Shuning Zhang, Si Chen, Huichang Zhao, Linzhi Zhu

“…However, for the deception jamming, the characteristics of the complex short-range detection system are very similar to the detection echo, which poses a serious threat to the detection system. In order to analyze and extract the different characteristics between deceptive jamming and target echo signal, so as to realize the anti-deceptive jamming of chaotic compound short-range detection system, this article analyzes and simulates the mathematical model of deceptive jamming and target echo, and analyzes the bispectral characteristics of the simulated echo and jamming signal, and a set of anti-deception jamming feature parameters has been constructed. …”
