🚨 Radar Spoofing With Digital Radio Frequency Memory (DRFM) 🚨

Advanced Techniques in Electronic Warfare and Signal Manipulation
By Gareth Thomas

What if you could see inside the black box of modern electronic warfare?

What if you had, at your fingertips, the same cutting-edge knowledge that defense contractors, military labs, and classified programs guard so tightly… but laid out in a way you could actually understand and use?

That’s exactly what this book delivers.

Inside, you’ll discover:

  • The mathematical foundations of DRFM — not watered-down theory, but the real equations that drive radar spoofing, jamming, and deception.
  • How range gate pull-off (RGPO) and velocity gate pull-off (VGPO) actually work — with full technical breakdowns and step-by-step LaTeX-formatted derivations.
  • The truth about ADC/DAC performance, jitter, ENOB, and latency — and why they make or break a deception system.
  • Hardware + software architectures — FPGAs, GPUs, memory buffers, RF chains — the exact building blocks that turn theory into field-tested systems.
  • Countermeasures & ECCM tactics — what radar designers are doing to fight back against DRFM deception.

This is not another fluffy “overview.”
This is a serious, math-driven, engineering-grade reference for professionals, researchers, and anyone obsessed with the hidden science of radar spoofing.

Why This Book?

Because the world is changing fast. DRFM has moved from obscure lab equipment to the frontline of electronic warfare. Aircraft, UAVs, ships — every platform depends on it. And while most books shy away from the gritty details, this one plunges straight in.

You’ll walk away with a commanding understanding of:

  • How to capture, store, and replay radar pulses with phase-coherent accuracy.
  • The engineering trade-offs between latency, bandwidth, and dynamic range.
  • The mathematical models behind deception — explained clearly, step by step.

Who Should Read This Book?

  • Defense and aerospace professionals who need a clear, authoritative reference.
  • Students and researchers in radar, signal processing, or electronic warfare.
  • Engineers and hobbyists who want to push beyond SDR basics into advanced deception systems.

Here’s the Deal:

This is the Second Edition, expanded and refined. Packed with new math, diagrams, and appendices covering standards, hardware/software resources, and key patents.

It’s a serious book for serious readers — the kind of reference you’ll mark up, dog-ear, and keep within arm’s reach.

🔥 Grab your copy now before competitors, colleagues, or students get ahead of you.
Don’t just read about radar spoofing — master it.

Gareth Thomas is the publisher-author behind BurstBooks, creating rigorous, code-rich STEM textbooks for engineers and advanced learners. Based in Auckland, New Zealand, he builds practical, reference-grade titles that blend clear exposition with working math, diagrams, and real-world examples. His catalog focuses on high-impact domains—including humanoid robotics, GPU architecture and programming, electronic warfare systems, satellite and space systems, EEG/neuro-engineering, and applied AI/ML—designed for hands-on use in labs, teams, and self-study.

Gareth’s workflow is unapologetically modern: LaTeX for precision, reproducible figures and listings, and AI-assisted drafting to accelerate iteration while maintaining strict technical accuracy. Each BurstBooks edition aims to minimize fluff and maximize utility—clean structure, consistent notation, and actionable takeaways. When possible, he complements books with supporting Github repositories, infographics, and exercises to help readers move from theory to implementation quickly.

Note: Many BurstBooks titles are AI-assisted technical editions—structured for information density and correctness over prose style.
