Abstract

This paper introduces a new approach based on blind source separation (BSS) to mitigate intentional interference in BFSK digital communication systems using frequency hopping spread spectrum technique. The use of BSS is possible thanks to adopting an adequate selection block to distinguish between the useful signal and other undesirable signals, hence, circumvent the problem of ambiguity of permutation. An analytical calculation of the probability of error to predict the performance is done. The simulation results showed the effectiveness of this approach, whatever the level of the JSR and without using the fast frequency hopping alternative or error-correcting codes.
