Summary
This three-day course addresses the key
elements of electronic attack (EA) and electronic
protection (EP). This includes EA/ECM principles,
philosophies, and strategies; basic radar systems
and waveforms; the radar range equation and how
to manipulate it to derive basic noise and deception
jamming equations; electronic attack techniques
and waveform generation; electronic protection
techniques; threat system analyses; applications to
communication and infra-red countermeasures
concepts; and testing and evaluation methods and
limitations
Instructor
Brian Moore has over 25 years experience in
systems engineering in EW, ES / ESM, and ELINT,
including electronic attack and radar systems. He
has a BSEE from Michigan Technological University
and an MSEE from Syracuse University. Mr. Moore
has performed system engineering and analysis to
integrate new EW technology and techniques with
existing systems and platforms throughout his
career. In addition, Mr. Moore provides technical
inputs to the government for ELINT R&D and
provides consulting for EW system architecture and
processing, specific emitter identification and
tracking, intentional modulation on pulse, signal
detection and feature extraction, and wideband / LPI
processing. Mr. Moore has performed various
EW/ESM systems engineering, analysis,
development, integration, and test efforts (INEWS,
F-22, A-12, B-2, special projects). Mr. Moore is
currently the Senior Vice President and Technical
Director for a major research company.
