ABSTRACT

Four fundamental approaches based on spatial discrimination are commonly adopted in antijam Global Positioning Systems (GPS). e application of these approaches requires the GPS receiver to be equipped with an antenna array. e choice between

which approach to undertake depends on various parameters, including the number of available satellites in the eld of view (FOV), the nature of the jamming environment, the antenna polarization characteristics, and the ability to utilize the satellite direction information. e four approaches, placed in broad categories, are:
