Electronic Warfare

The graduate certificate program in Electronic Warfare systems will train students in the fundamentals of wireless radio frequency (RF) communications with applications in communications, radar, and electronic warfare. The design and operation of systems using advanced radio, transceiver, signal and control and microwave and wireless technologies requires technical knowledge of new capabilities and, critically, the ability to act rapidly for both offensive and defensive tactical solutions.

Program Outcomes:

Introduction to radar systems and electronic warfare, with an understanding of the radar waveform design, signal processing, and target tracking, as well as jamming/anti-jamming techniques, low-probability of intercept waveforms, and electronic warfare detection, identification, and countermeasures.

Hands-on laboratory coursework to learn the foundations of analog and digital communications, as well as multi-layer experiments with a reconfigurable, open-source, full-stack software defined radio.

Elective coursework in deterministic signal processing, wireless systems and propagation channels, and radio frequency transceiver design.
