Russia to use cell towers for jamming
Russia is installing jamming equipment on the country’s mobile phone towers in order to confuse or misdirect cruise missiles in case of war.
According to reports, the Pole-21 GPS jammers will be powered by the phone tower’s supply and will use their GSM antennas as a “backup channel for signal control and transmission”.
The system is claimed to be capable of jamming GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and Beidou signals within a radius of 80 kilometres using just 20 watts radiated power.
