GSM-900 Mobile JAMMER
INTRODUCTION
JAMMING is the act of intentionally directing electromagnetic energy at a communication system to disrupt or prevent signal transmission.
The GSM Jammer is a device that transmit signal on the same frequency at witch the GSM system operates, the jamming success when the mobile phones in the area where the jammer is located could’nt make or reciece call phones .
JAMMING Techniques 1
Type “A”: JAMMERS
Type ”B”: Intelligent Cellular Disablers
Type “C”: Intelligent Beacon Disablers
Type ”D”: Smart JAMMERS
Type ”E”: Faraday Cage ( EMI Suppression Techniques)
GSM JAMMING Requirement 1
Jamming is successful when the jamming signal denies the usability of the communications transmission. In digital communications, the usability is denied when the error rate of the transmission cannot be compensated by error correction.
Usually a successful jamming attack requires that the jammer power is roughly equal to signal power at the receiver.
The effects of jamming depend on the jamming-to-signal ratio (J/S), and the modulation scheme.
GSM JAMMING Requirement 2
Jamming-to-Signal ratio is given by:
Where:
Pj = jammer power
Pt = transmitter power
Gjr = antenna gain (jammer to receiver)
Grj = antenna gain (receiver to Jammer)
Gtr = antenna gain (transmitter to receiver)
Grt = antenna gain (receiver to transmitter)
Br = communications receiver bandwidth
Bj = jamming transmitter bandwidth
Rtr = range between communications transmitter and receiver
Rjt = range between jammer and communications receiver
Lj = jammer signal loss (including polarization mismatch)
Lr = communication signal loss
GSM JAMMING Requirement 3
The frequency of the transmitted signal of the jammer must cover the GSM frequency range
As the power received from the GSM Base Station is usually low, It is easier to jamm the downlink (i.e. Jamming the mobile station 'handset' receiver) than uplink, hence the jammer output frequency should cover the downlink frequency.
Design and Implementation
GSM Mobile JAMMER
GSM-900 Mobile Jammer
RF-Section 1
The RF-section is responsible for generating and transmitting the RF-Jamming signal. The main parts are: VCO, Power Amplifier, and the Antenna.
fortunately, all the parts used are internally matched to 50ohm load, and hence transmission lines used are microstrip lines designed to have 50ohm characteristic impedance
The components used are all surface mount component

RF-Section 2
The output power of the jammer was designed so that it has a range of 20m, and was calculated as follow:
Jr ( jammer power at mobile receiver) ≥ Smax – SNRmin
SNRmin = 9 dB for mobile receiver and
Smax = -15dBm (Mobile station signal power at mobile receiver)
Jr ≥ -24 dBm
The jammer output power = Jr + F
free space path loss equation:
F = 32.45 + 20 log (f *D), f in MHZ and D in Km
Output power = 58 – 24 = 34 dBm

The VCO 1
The MAX2623 VCO from MAXIM IC was used to generate the required signal
The output frequency range for the VCO is:
850 – 1000 MHz for a tune voltage from 0.4 – 2.6V.
The input tune frequency best suited the VCO was 120KHz to sweep the desired frequency range.

The VCO 2
The MAX2623 VCO is implemented as an LC oscillator configuration, integrating all of the tank circuitry on-chip.
The tuning input which control the output frequency is internally connected to the varactor.
The output is internally matched to 50ohm, and output power of -3dBm.

RF Power Amplifiers 1
Two RF power amplifiers were used to achieve the required output power (i.e. 34dBm).
The first stage power amplifier was the MAR-4SM from Mini-Circuits it has a gain of 8dB for frequency range from DC to 1000 MHz
so the output of this stage should be 5dBm
for the -3dBm output of the VCO

Input and output are matched to 50hom load
The MAR-4SM is current biased power amplifier

RF Power Amplifiers 3
The second stage power amplifier is the Hitachi PF08103b dual power amplifier with efficiency at 48%.
It can operate either on GSM-900 or DCS1800, so external circuitry was designed to configure it to operate in GSM mode
The output of the power amplifier is 35dBm
for 1dBm input

RF-Section 9
RF Power Amplifiers 4
Symmetric T-Network with 4dB attenuation was used To obtain 1dBm at the input of the second power amplifier from the 5dBm output of the first power amplifier.
For 4-dB attenuation, and matched to 50ohm transmission line, V-2 = V2 = 0.631 * V1
(S12 = S21 = 0.631) the value of the resistors was found using the following equations
0.631 = (X / (X + R1))*(50 / (50 + R1)
50 = (R2 + 50) // (R3) + R1
where X = (R2 + 50)//R3.

Noise Generator 1
Noise will help in masking the jamming transmission, making it look like random "noise" to an outside observer.
The noise generator used is based on the avalanche noise generated by a Zener breakdown phenomenon.
The noise generator circuit consists of:
A standard 6.8 volt Zener diode with a small reverse current
Transistor buffer
National LM386 audio amplifier function as:
Small signal amplifier
Band pass filter
