Abstract

An ultra wideband (UWB) jamming system comprises a processor (120), a memory (125), a pulse generator (115), one or more UWB transmitters (110), and one or more UWB antennas (160). In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the RF signals of a threat transmission or an RF-triggered explosive device (RTED) are evaluated and a set of interference parameters defined for the RF signal of that device. The interference parameters are predetermined to interfere with the reception or transmission of the RF signal. The interference parameters are sent to a pulse generator (115) that drives one or more UWB transmitters (110) to generate a signal has a statistically high probability of jamming or introducing an error in the threatening transmission.
