I'm that sense, a phased array can help by filtering out signals that are not in line of sight with your satellite, but only one satellite fix does not provide a great estimate of the receivers position. Esp when signal strength is used to estimate bearing.
- fragmede 4y agowell, anyone having to deal with you (and I) do. I wouldn't put it past a APT to be able to do better and take action in space if their hand were forced.
- gameshot911 4y agoInteresting! Is it theoretically possible to launch a "GPS jamming" satellite constellation? And if so, could you do it with far less satellites than the quantity you are attempting to jam?
- jvanderbot 4y agoIt's much cheaper to just shoot them down.
- pencilguin 4y ago... with friggin' lasers.
- pencilguin 4y agoIf you have a phased array, you can point it at a series of sats in rapid succession, or even all at once with more electronics.
- jvanderbot 4y agoThat is a good point about pinging many sats. However all at once doesn't make sense to me in the context of a jamming scenario
