Re: Root Cause Analysis of the Delhi ATC / GPS Interference Incident

It should also cause issues with other civilian users such as people using cellphones. This hasn’t been reported as far as I ...

Re: Root Cause Analysis of the Delhi ATC / GPS Interference Incident

I am not sure I understand the above. GPS jamming and spoofing by Pak means they have to have set up a transmitter. Which means it can be triangulated and detected and correlated. A simple spectrum capture over time will provide irrefutable proof of Pak complicity. I really doubt its Pak doing it fr...

Re: Root Cause Analysis of the Delhi ATC / GPS Interference Incident

I wonder if GoI has the relevant triangulation equipment to identify the GPS jamming source assuming it’s terrestrial. It should not be that hard to find, even if it’s mobile. If it’s space based, then it should be easy to locate as satellites have fixed paths.

So is it a reasonable theory that GNPS spoofing led to messages overloading the AMSS?

IMHO the above is only true...
