584 CHAPTER 12 Electronic ProtectionEP techniques discussed in this chapter as well as examples <strong>of</strong> applicable EA techniquesand associated specific assumptions for the EA. (The EA technique abbreviations used inTable 12-4 are found in Table 12-3.)Although it may appear that we have covered a large number <strong>of</strong> EP options, in asense we have only scratched the surface. The discussion in this chapter is by no meansintended to be comprehensive but rather is meant to provide an introductory glimpse intoa broad and multifaceted topic. Not only are there many additional EP techniques besidesthe ones described, but <strong>of</strong> those that are described we have touched on only a few <strong>of</strong> thekey issues determining applicability and performance. Hopefully, however, the reader hascome away with an understanding <strong>of</strong> some <strong>of</strong> the fundamental concepts <strong>of</strong> radar EP aswell as an appreciation for the diversity and intensity <strong>of</strong> the ongoing EW battle for control<strong>of</strong> the electromagnetic spectrum.12.12 FURTHER READINGAn encyclopedic type overview <strong>of</strong> EW is provided in the classic, two-volume set by LeroyVan Brunt [2,3]. Although decades old, these books still provide excellent insight intothe breadth <strong>of</strong> EA and EP (then called ECM and ECCM) from the perspective <strong>of</strong> a truepractitioner.A clear description <strong>of</strong> key EP concepts as applicable to airborne pulse-Doppler radaris found in [6]. A broad overview <strong>of</strong> radar EW is also provided in [1,7].For those interested in an historical perspective, two books trace the use <strong>of</strong> EW fromWorld War II through the 1960s and then from the 1960s through the 1990s:• Price, A., Instruments <strong>of</strong> Darkness (The History <strong>of</strong> Electronic Warfare), PeninsulaPublishing, Los Altos, CA, 1987.• Price, A., War in the Fourth Dimension (US Electronic Warfare, from the Vietnam Warto the Present, Stackpole Books, Mechanicsburg, PA, 2001.12.13 REFERENCES[1] Schleher, D.C., Electronic Warfare in the Information Age, Artech House, Norwood, MA,1999.[2] Van Brunt, L.B., Applied ECM, vol. 1, EW Engineering, Dunn Loring, VA, 1978.[3] Van Brunt, L.B., Applied ECM, vol. 2, EW Engineering, Dunn Loring, VA, 1982.[4] Van Brunt, L.B., The Glossary <strong>of</strong> Electronic Warfare, EW Engineering, Dunn Loring, VA,1984.[5] Eaves, J. and Reedy, E., Eds., <strong>Principles</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Modern</strong> <strong>Radar</strong>, Chapman and Hall, New York,1987.[6] Morris, G. and Harkness, L., Eds., Airborne Pulsed Doppler <strong>Radar</strong>, 2d ed., Artech House,Norwood, MA, 1996.[7] Neri, F., Introduction to Electronic Defense Systems, 2d ed., SciTech Publishing, Raleigh, NC,2006.[8] Richards, M.A., Scheer, J.A., and Holm, W.A., Eds., <strong>Principles</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Modern</strong> <strong>Radar</strong>, Vol. 1:Basic <strong>Principles</strong>, SciTech Publishing, Raleigh, NC, 2010.
