JamX 22: Counter-Jamming Event Fact Sheet

Illegal jamming of communication systems can interfere with responders' ability to receive or provide life-saving information, as well as hamper their situational awareness. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) works to combat jamming threats through evaluating threats, developing and testing mitigation tactics, working with public safety agencies on training procedures to address jamming, and raising awareness of jamming threats and how to report them.

JamX 22 continues S&T's work and findings from the 2016 and 2017 First Responder Electronic Jamming Exercises. Results from JamX 22 will help improve resilient communications training.
