Abstract

In this paper, we design a simulator using Matlab/Simulink that evaluates the anti-jamming capability of a tactical data link (TDL) system, called Link-16. We analyze the BER performance of the Link-16 simulator over partial-band noise jamming. Especially, we consider a TDL system with the cognitive anti-jamming capability that senses the jamming signal and opportunistically avoids the jamming spectrum. Using that simulator, we verify that the presented TDL system with cognitive anti-jamming capability improves bit-error-rate (BER) performance compared to existing TDL system over jamming environments.
