Abstract:

In order to evaluate the survivability of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) data link in complex electromagnetic environment, the wideband white noise electromagnetic interference effect of UAV data link is studied. Based on the noise interference principle and evaluation method of data link receiver, electromagnetic sensitivity test is carried out by the electromagnetic interference injection method. The variation of anti-interference coefficient of data link with frequency aiming and bandwidth coverage ratio is studied, and the mechanism of broadband white noise interference is analyzed from the perspective of intermediate frequency output signal and data link performance parameters. Experimental results show that the high-power wideband white noise compressed jamming produces nonlinear gain compression effect at the radio frequency front end of the data link, which leads to the power reduction of the intermediate frequency working signal, and the effect depends on the frequency aiming degree and bandwidth coverage ratio of the jamming signal; there is an optimal jamming coverage ratio for partial band noise compression jamming, which leads to the highest jamming efficiency; under the same jamming effect, the wider the bandwidth of full-band white noise suppression jamming, the higher the required jamming-to-signal ratio and the lower the jamming efficiency will be.

Key words: unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) data link, wideband white noise, equivalent injection, gain compression
