Abstract :
An extended and rigorous analysis of retrodirective cross-eye jamming in a radar system scenario is presented. This analysis removes the approximations that limit the validity of other analyses of cross-eye jamming. These results imply that under certain conditions, a monopulse radar system can be more easily deceived than suggested by conventional cross-eye analyses. Furthermore, the cross-eye jammer antenna patterns do not affect the induced monopulse error.
