Introduction

• Countering Stealth Aircraft Technology: The Race to See through “Invisibility”

• Stealth technology, also termed low observable technology (LO technology),
which is a sub-discipline of military tactics and passive and active electronic
countermeasures, which covers a range of methods used to make
personnel, aircraft, ships, submarines, missiles, satellites and ground
vehicles less visible (ideally invisible) to radar infrared, sonar and other
electromagnetic spectrum (i.e., multi-spectral camouflage).
• The concept of Antistealth is to operate or unhide while giving enemy forces no
indication as to the presence of friendly forces.

Literature review

• Looking out for various articles ,research papers and looking on internet .
• Studying the implementation method of various Stealth technologies used to hide .
• Reading more about the V/UHF radars have good chances of detecting stealth aircraft. Since
their wavelength (1-2 m) is of around the same magnitude as the prominent features on many
stealth jets, their signal is echoed by a resonant effect that is unaffected by stealth shaping or
RAM coatings .
. Analysing the possible threats scenarios where the current system can be compromised.
• Rechecking and improvising our proposed mechanism, using an iterative approach based on
objectives achieved and problems faced.
• Analysing the optimizations achievable.

Literature review
CHINESE YLC-8B RADAR ON DISPLAY

The YLC-8E UHF-band 3D surveillance radar system as

well as anti-drone radars like the YLC-48 portable
multipurpose reconnaissance radar at the Ninth World
Radar Expo in Nanjing. These radars are already
deployed by China with the YLC-8E tracking the US
stealth aircraft.

Objectives

•  To detect personnel, aircraft, ships, submarines, missiles, satellites

and ground vehicles less visible (ideally invisible) to radar infrared, sonar and
other electromagnetic spectrum (i.e., multi-spectral camouflage).
 Avoid spoofing
• To optimize the cost of manufacturing and operating
To avoid sudden attack done by enemy by using stealth technology
 To make defence sector strong and efficient in every kind of attack done by
enemy.

Methodology
Following things to be carried out:

 Studying about stealth technology and its implementation .

 Implementing theoretical approach to the V/UHF radars
 Studying about RAM coating and material used for the same.
 Studying about the China’s Antistealth radar
 Studying about network of V/UHF Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar
systems, all connected by high-speed data-link

Results & Conclusion

• Steps overview:
• Transmission to be from start node, to end node via intermediary nodes.
• |Nend| <----- |Nmid| <----- |Nstart|
• Fence state calculated
• Bits represent state of current node
• Left shifted to node number
• OR with current state
• Timestamp counter incremented
• Random number generated (seed)
• H(Device key (+) Seed) calculated, gives Km (Message key)
• (Km (+)  (Timestamp | Fence state) ) | Seed, gives Data 
• Calculate (Kf (+) Data | CRC32(Data)) and transmit.
• During decryption at receiving node, same steps in reverse order.
• End node transmits fence state over network
• Application end displays state of fence.

Results & Conclusion

• Conclusions
• Reduced on time, hence power consumption & operation cost
• 10khz, diode dependent
• Approx. 500 Bytes/Second data rate taken
• Packet approx. 15 Bytes.
• Ton / Ttotal (15 * 4 packet/second)/500, approx. 12% usage, 88% saving
• Reduced number of wireless transmitters, hence reduced cost
• Total nodes – 1
• Last node transmits to server
• Security
• Beam spoofing
• PRF replaced with PSK encryption, key not known to attacker.
• Beam bending
• Intensity measured
• Replay attack
• Timestamp counter
