Abstract

Today’s wireless communication systems are highly susceptible to malicious jamming attacks and interference signals. These attacks are sent via communication link at the same frequency as the intended signal. The sent information is thus corrupted and the receiver is unable to correctly decode the sent data stream. This paper thereby seeks to come up with an anti-jamming system that is able to respond intelligently to such malicious attacks, block them and enable the correct decoding of a message. The proposed system objectives are to ensure that data throughput is at its highest, energy consumption at the lowest level and the bit error rate is maintained at a very low level during and after any jamming attack. The system is also able to identify jammer state from transmit power and respond accordingly.
