“…In [86], Romero et al studied the performance of LTE uplink transmission under a commercial frequency-sweeping jamming attack. The authors conducted experiments to evaluate the sensitivity of uplink reference signal when the jammer sweeps the 20 MHz channel within T microseconds, where T ∈ [1,200].…”

Wireless networks are a key component of the telecommunications infrastructure in our society, and wireless services become increasingly important as the applications of wireless devices have penetrated every aspect of our lives. Although wireless technologies have significantly advanced in the past decades, most wireless networks are still vulnerable to radio jamming attacks due to the openness nature of wireless channels, and the progress in the design of jamming-resistant wireless networking systems remains limited. This stagnation can be attributed to the lack of practical physical-layer wireless technologies that can efficiently decode data packets in the presence of jamming attacks. This article surveys existing jamming attacks and anti-jamming strategies in wireless local area networks (WLANs), cellular networks, cognitive radio networks (CRNs), ZigBee networks, Bluetooth networks, vehicular networks, LoRa networks, RFID networks, and GPS system, with the objective of offering a comprehensive knowledge landscape of existing jamming/anti-jamming strategies and stimulating more research efforts to secure wireless networks against jamming attacks. Different from prior survey papers, this article conducts a comprehensive, in-depth review on jamming and anti-jamming strategies, casting insights on the design of jamming-resilient wireless networking systems. An outlook on promising antijamming techniques is offered at the end of this article to delineate important research directions.

“…Notwithstanding, valid technical options need to be obtained first, which is what this paper proposes. Furthermore, some UAS also use LTE (with a plethora of known vulnerabilities [17], [20], [22], [8], [15], [18], [21]) or the WiFi frequency band with for command and control interfaces as well as telemetry.…”

The number of unoccupied aerial systems (UAS) is projected to exponentially increase in the next few decades for a variety of civil and military uses. However, this poses significant challenges with respect to airspace integration. This paper reviews identified security vulnerabilities of the two main options for UAS communication and airspace management, aircraft communications addressing and reporting system (ACARS) and automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B). Based on a comprehensive threat model, open questions and challenges to secure communication of UAS are discussed. As the state of the art is unable to apply security functionalities, this paper presents the safety and security for UAS (S2UAS) system architecture. This novel approach incorporates relevant safety and security aspects for UAS operation, while taking the aforementioned challenges into account. S2UAS covers four essential aspects: (1) detect incoming aerospace vehicles, (2) authenticate those vehicles and establish a secure communication channel, (3) safely react to failed authentication and (4) enable collaboration such as formation flight, even if vehicles are only partially trustworthy.
