Abstract

In spite that different techniques have been developed to create errors or instabilities in modern angle trackers based on Instantaneous Amplitude Comparison, no practical results of their application have yet been published. In this paper a typical IAC angle tracker is simulated and its characteristics are evaluated without jamming and under the effect of Phase Front Distortion jamming technique. The main parameters of the technique have been optimized for maximum possible effectiveness.
