Radio frequency jamming or interference detection and mitigation in an electronic monitoring system
An electronic monitoring system and method are provided. The electronic monitoring system monitors communication of data between a device primary radio of a monitoring device and a hub primary radio through a primary communication path. Communication of the data is transferred to a secondary communication path between a device secondary radio of the monitoring device and a hub secondary radio in response to the detection of a disruption on the primary communication path resulting from interference or jamming of communications over the primary communication path. The primary and secondary radios operate a different frequencies.
INTERFERENCE MITIGATION FOR A RECEIVER
A method for mitigating interference in a receiver, where the received signal is transmitted in a fashion having equivalent information content in at least two distinct bands. The method compares mean power per unit bandwidth in suitably normalised sidebands and sets a rejection threshold based upon the measured levels. Bands above the threshold may be rejected from further processing. The bands may include sidebands produced by a modulation process that produces sidebands having the same informational content. The threshold may be set relative to the band having the lowest mean power per unit bandwidth or according to some other function of the bands. Also extends to a signal processor in a receiver, and a receiver. The primary focus of the application is toward the Galileo Public Regulated Service (PRS) Satellite navigation signal.
Method For Locating A Terrestial Transmitting Source Of An Unknown Signal
A method for locating a terrestrial transmitting source of an unknown signal that is transmitted via satellite to a terrestrial receiver, wherein the method includes comparing a power fluctuation of the unknown signal with a power fluctuation of at least one known signal allocated to a terrestrial transmitting source and determining a degree of similarity between the power fluctuation of the unknown signal and the power fluctuation of the at least one known signal.
