In 1974 Doctor David W. Berrie of Aeronautical Systems Division, proposed a radar jamming waveform derived from filtered pseudo-random binary sequences. The running time of the sequence is synchronized to the pulse repitition rate of the victim radar and defeats the post detection pulse integrator. Berrie's results were derived from theory and analog computer simulation. This study applies that waveform to a radar receiver model incorporating a DICKE-FIX (wideband limiter) ECCM device and uses a digital computer simulation (RADSIM) to determine radar performance. Berrie's results were essentially confirmed, and the DICKE-FIX device was found to be ineffective against this form of jamming. (Author)
