SDR as a Potential Jamming Tool

Abstract

Nowadays, the use and application of drones appear in almost every area of our lives. The intensity of use is increasing in both military and civilian contexts. From a certain point of view, the use of drones can be “useful” for the development of humanity and society, and it can also be “harmful”. From a given point of view, a drone classified in the “useful” category and its mission performance must be protected, while the operation and mission performance of a “harmful” category must be limited. In our article, we examine the discontinuity and interference of the satellite navigation system that helps with drone orientation. We use software defined radio (SDR) for our tests.
