Systems and methods for electronic warfare automation and routing
First Claim
1. A method of determining placement of an electronic attack platform in protection of at least one protected entity, the method comprising:
- calculating pre-filter jamming requirements of the electronic attack platform and the at least one protected entity;
determining at least one event to incorporate jamming;
calculating jamming requirements of the electronic attack platform and the at least one protected entity based on the at least one event and the pre-filter jamming requirements;
generating at least one jammer acceptability volume over the at least one event;
determining boundaries of the at least one jammer acceptability volume; and
determining at least one bounded region in the at least one jammer acceptability volume for placing the electronic attack platform to provide protection of the at least one protected entity.

Abstract
Systems, devices, and methods efficiently calculate optimal flight paths for protected entities given terrain data, aircraft position, flight characteristics, and positions of known threat emitters. The systems and methods execute within the mission planning timeline, and the developed processes allow users to retrieve data from the calculations to effectively place an electronic attack platform at the right place and at the right time to be effective. The calculated optimal flight paths are displayed or otherwise visualized in the mission space. Electronic attack jamming capabilities are combined with projected threat emitter performance information in order to obtain optimal geometrical positioning of the electronic attack relative to the threat emitter. Threat emitter system characteristics are combined with electronic attack aircraft capabilities while simultaneously incorporating the position of the protected entity aircraft and rendered to assist the electronic attack aircrew in providing optimal electronic attack capabilities to protect one or more entities.
