Resumo

This article proposes the concept of a decoy that could be used against anti-radiation missiles (ARMs). The bait signals are generated remotely and transmitted to the sacrificial antenna site over a fiber optic network. This network has the possibility to support broadband radar signals in the range of a few GHz. This study postulated a distance of 1 km in relation to its park of antennas, however, this distance may be greater. This analog fiber link was designed for radar signal transmission in the frequency range of 0.3 to 3 GHz. The theoretical results were compared with the experimental ones and it was observed that the behavior of the radar signal power gain in the studied range is straight, thus the signal does not present distortions. The system proposed in this study is promising as a distraction for ARMs.
