What is it about?
Modern electronic warfare (EW) has become exceedingly complex with interactions between many competing systems. A threat evaluation and jamming allocation (TEJA) system is proposed that can perform the automatic planning of a platform's jamming strategy so as to maximise its probability of survival, whilst taking these interactions into account in a computationally efficient manner.

Why is it important?
Previously developed systems do not account for a number of important factors including the interactions between jammers, radar modes and their progression, the effects of different operating frequencies, the effects and interactions of different jamming techniques, as well as threat uncertainties. It is shown that the system is useful in handling a complex scenario in a computationally efficient manner.
Perspectives
This is a unique approach to a complex problem. Modelling the problem at a signal level is completely infeasible due to its sheer size, where results would take so long to generate that they would be of no use. Therefore it is extremely important to approach this problem in as simple and computationally efficient manner as possible, whilst still accounting for the many complex interactions inherent to the problem.
