Abstract :
It is desirable to limit the apparent target to one side of a retrodirective cross-eye jammer despite the variation caused by platform skin return. The relationship between the jammer parameters and the jammer-to-signal ratio (JSR) to ensure that this occurs is investigated. When this relationship is not satisfied, the proportion of the apparent targets generated on the opposite side of the jammer is determined.
