Analysis of a New Wideband Blanket Jamming Type to GPS Receiver

Aiming at the problem that a Continuous Wave (CW) is easy to be suppressed by the frequency domain filtering and the efficiency of a broadband continuous blanket jamming is low, this paper presents a new broadband comb spectrum jamming type which is called single pulse CW. The jamming frequency domain range of single pulse CW is set respectively according to the power spectral density characteristic of C/A code, P(Y) code and M code signal. Taking code tracking error as the evaluation index of jamming effect, the GPS receiver code tracking performance of using a narrowband non-coherent delay lock loop is simulated and analyzed under different jamming circumstance. The simulation results show that the influence of single pulse CW jamming to C/A code and M code with the different Pseudo Random Noise Code (PRN) and phase of modulating sub-carrier are different, under the same Jamming-to-Signal Ratio (JSR) condition, the jamming effect of single pulse CW is better than the broadband Gaussian noise and matched spectrum.
