Thus, such near optimum jammer signals are studied and evaluated in the performance of the noncoherent terms of their effect on ASK receiver. B.

These different requirements of SNR value for various jammer waveforms show that the FM sweep jammer can be effecas effective as the near optimum tive but in general is not jammer. Note that from a practical point of view, the added complexity of candidate FM jammer for a waveform may replacement of the make it an unlikely near optimum jammer. However, one advantage the FM sweep jammer has over the near optimum jammer is that the former a large bandwidth easily than the latter in the case can spread its power over and therefore is more effective of lack of exact information or knowledge about the signal carrier frequency. 59 VI.
