Tolerance sensitivity limits the practical application of the cross-eye jammer. Previous literature has demonstrated that retrodirective cross-eye jamming with multiple antenna elements possesses the advantage of loose tolerance requirements compared to traditional cross-eye jamming. However, the previous analysis was limited, because there are still some factors affecting the parameter tolerance of the multiple-element retrodirective cross-eye jamming (MRCJ) system and they have not been investigated completely, such as the loop difference, the baseline ratio and the jammer-to-signal ratio. This paper performs a comprehensive tolerance analysis of the MRCJ system with a nonuniform-spacing linear array. Simulation results demonstrate the tolerance effects of the above influence factors and give reasonable advice for easing tolerance sensitivity.
