Abstract

The paper deals with the reasons for jamming and spoofing telemetry and GPS, but also with methods from the world of electronic warfare, which may not (yet) be relevant or known in the domain of flight test. The lecture will also give a closer look at and deeper insight in the possibilities of intercepting and evaluating telemetry data and the possibilities that arise from this, even if the contents are encrypted. FISINT (Foreign Instrumentation Signals Intelligence) is an area of signals intelligence (SIGINT), that plays a subordinate role in electronic warfare and military intelligence but is very interesting to intelligence agencies and beneficial to other organizations.
