  1. Chapter 16 Electronic and Information Warfare

  2. Basics • Electronic Attack • Deception • Soft Kill/Hard Kill • Electronic protection • Electronic Support

  3. Communication Systems • Radio Systems • Point to point and broadcast • Fixed sites, HQ to political leadership • Covert assets, agents in field • Tactical communications • Control and telemetry messages

  4. Signals Intelligence techniques • Mapped enemies network • RDF Radio Direction Finding • Traffic analysis • Identify “interesting” messages • Signal collection • Echelon

  5. Attacks on Communications • Easier to steal key material than crack encryption • Content access not always the goal • Jamming can be effective also • Active deception • Disruption of capabilities • Hard kill • Soft kill

  6. Protection techniques • Dedicated lines optical fiber • Highly directional transmission links • Low probability of intercept (LPI) • Low probability of position fix (LPPF) • Frequency hoppers, direct spread spectrum, burst transmission, Meteor scatter

  7. Interaction Military Civilian • GPS • Military initially limited accuracy • During Gulf war lack of military units required use of civilian units and hence had to turn off limiting • FAA found ways around limited availability • 2000 turned off limited capability • Mobile phones

  8. Skipped • Radar • IFF systems

  9. Directed Energy Weapons • Will address in article (DEW) • Information Warfare • Desert Storm • Cruise missiles • Jammers • Special forces • Hacking attacks on computers and networks

  10. Other notions • Many comparisons between Military and civilian issues • Pages 342-343 • E-war versus I-War • Pages 343-344

  11. Articles • Meteor scatter uses • Current use of Directed Energy Weapons
