A SURVEY ON JAMMING AND FRIENDLY JAMMING TECHNIQUES
Wireless communication is the most growing area in the field of communications and wireless networks as their key components become increasingly important in our life. Despite the great advancement of wireless networks in recent years, most wireless networks are vulnerable to jamming attacks because of the openness of the wireless channel. The purpose of jamming is to cause interference with the adversary’s or enemy’s effective use of electromagnetic spectrum [1]. In contrast to jamming, which is typically used for attack purposes, friendly jamming is a technique used to protect against attacks. We start by introducing the basic jamming concepts and fields of use. The focus of our review is based on jamming and friendly jamming techniques, their application fields, their limitations, and challenges for different kinds of networks such as WLANs, 5G radio networks, cognitive radio networks, vehicular wireless networks and fly ad-hoc networks.
